The Department of Geography at Dartmouth College invites applications for a full-time tenured
appointment in Human Geography at the rank of Associate or Full Professor. We seek
individuals committed to creative scholarship and teaching in areas such as Black geographies,
critical race studies, critical ethnic studies, Black radical thought, queer studies, Indigenous
studies, Latinx geographies, Asian American Studies, and other areas of critical human
geography. Our faculty regularly collaborate with numerous units across campus.Depending on
specific interests, the person in this position can expect to find willing collaborators in, for
example, the Departments of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies (LALACS), African
and African American Studies (AAAS), Native American and Indigenous studies (NAIS),
Anthropology, and History, as well as the Program in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies.
Our faculty also collaborate regularly with the Leslie Center for the Humanities, the Nelson A.
Rockefeller Center for Public Policy the John Sloan Dickey Center for International
Understanding, and the Irving Institute for Energy and Society. Several members of our faculty
are affiliated with the interdisciplinary graduate program Ecology, Evolution, Environment &
Society (EEES) and are actively advising graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. We have a
regular two-year Postdoctoral Fellow in Human Geography and have been successful in
sponsoring postdoctoral fellows through the Provost’s Fellowship (PROF) program, the Society
of Fellows program, and the Neukom Fellows program. In addition, we are especially interested
in applicants who can contribute to undergraduate research initiatives, including those that
advance diversity in the discipline such as the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship. All
faculty in Geography regularly engage undergraduate research assistants in ongoing research
projects through Dartmouth-sponsored initiatives such as the Women in Science Program
(WISP) and the Presidential Scholar program. The Geography department and Dartmouth are
committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive population of students, faculty, and
staff. Dartmouth recently launched a new initiative, Toward Equity, that embraces shared
definitions of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as a foundation for our success in
institutional transformation. We are especially interested in applicants who are able to work
effectively with students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds and with different identities
and attributes. Applicants should provide a statement addressing how their teaching, research,
service, and/or life experiences prepare them to advance Dartmouth’s commitment to
diversity, equity, and inclusion.
