Adjunct Faculty-Department of Religious Studies

2 months ago

Denver, Colorado, United States University of Denver Full time
As the University's largest and most varied academic unit, the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS) is comprised of artists, learners, performers, scholars, scientists, and teachers across 21+ departments, programs, schools, and centers, and acts as a central hub where many of the University's disciplines intersect. Nearly all 6,000 undergraduates at the University take liberal arts courses with us, and about one-third of these students declare a first major in a CAHSS program. Most of our departments, programs and schools offer master's or doctoral programs. CAHSS scholars, artists, instructors, staff, and students collaborate in a shared quest for knowledge about the human condition and the development of skills to improve our local and global communities. The diverse scope of CAHSS allows our students to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed at nearly any career in today's global society.

Department Summary

The Department of Religious Studies at the University of Denver is a vibrant department of eight productive, nationally recognized scholar-teachers who have attracted a cadre of undergraduate majors, double majors and graduate students in the College of Arts, Humanities, & Social Sciences (CAHSS). We are strongly committed to building a diverse and inclusive educational environment, in full accord with the value that DU places on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Ours is a high-profile department in the oldest independent university in the Rocky Mountain region, which describes itself as a great private university dedicated to the public good. DU enrolls over 12,000 students in its undergraduate and graduate programs. The Carnegie Foundation classifies DU as a Doctoral/Very High Research University, or "R1". Our department offers B.A. and M.A. degrees in Religious Studies, as well as M.A.-level certificates. Our courses contribute to the undergraduate common curriculum, the Critical Race and Ethnic Studies minor, the Middle East Studies minor, the Gender and Women's Studies program, and Asian Studies. We are core contributors to the Joint Doctoral Program in the Study of Religion, which the University of Denver shares with the Iliff School of Theology.

Religious Studies seeks qualified individuals to join our adjunct pool for non-benefited, part-time teaching assignments in New Testament, Christian Literature, Islamic Studies, Religion and Media (all in autumn quarter 2024), Psychology of Religion, Native American Cosmologies or Religions, or Indigenous Religions at the University of Denver in winter or spring quarter 2025.

Adjunct Religious Studies faculty members teach 4-credit courses.
