CCS at SJSU was created in 1968, making it the oldest graduate program in Chicanx Studies in the country. Our mission is to serve SJSU students and diverse communities through an interdisciplinary Chicanx Studies program based on principles of social justice. We offer three degree programs: A master's degree with emphases in Policy, Education, and Comparative Ethnic Studies; a new undergraduate major with emphases in Cultural and Creative Expression, Institutions and Community Engagement, and Transnationalism and Global Relations; and a popular undergraduate minor that draws students from across the university. Our curriculum prepares students to critically examine and creatively respond to intellectual traditions and contemporary issues resulting from race, class, and gender intersections in Chicanx/Latinx and other communities. Graduates of our program have launched careers in teaching, social services, public policy, health care, government, and community service, as well as pursued advanced degrees in programs such as Education, History, Social Work, and Feminist Studies, becoming the next generation of CCS educators and community leaders. Addressing the racial and ethnic realities of our students and communities, CCS has seen significant growth in recent years in terms of both faculty hiring and student enrollment. CCS faculty regularly connect with students and our broader campus community through an exciting new series of weekly Pláticas that highlight their wide-ranging interest and expertise. In addition, our faculty connect their research and teaching to our campus and local communities through partnerships with the Chicanx/Latinx Student Success Center, UndocuSpartan Center, Culture Counts Reading Series, Young Women's Freedom Center, and more. As the flagship Ethnic Studies department within the College of Social Sciences (CoSS), CCS is a vital part of SJSU. SJSU and CoSS are committed to growing Ethnic Studies more broadly. In 2018, CoSS launched the Ethnic Studies Collaborative (ESC), bringing together faculty, staff, and students to highlight the research and leadership contributions of SJSU's Ethnic Studies programs and departments. The ESC includes the Department of African American Studies, Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies, and the Program of Asian American Studies; it serves as the nexus for Ethnic Studies faculty, student, and community collaboration at SJSU. The ESC supports Ethnic Studies curricular and co-curricular projects that address issues of settler colonialism, racial capitalism, immigration, and racialization, with a focus on the comparative histories and experiential knowledges of marginalized racial and ethnic groups in the U.S., including but not limited to Native Americans/American Indians; Black and African Americans; Chicanxs and Latinxs; Native Hawaiians, Pacific Islanders, and Indigenous peoples of Oceania and other nations; and Asian Americans. The ESC is also currently playing a key role in shaping the implementation of AB 1460, the CSU graduation requirement in Ethnic Studies. The Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies and San José State University value diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. Our excellence in research, teaching, and service can only be fully realized by faculty, students, and staff who share our commitment to these values. SJSU enrolls more than 36,000 students, many of whom are historically underserved, and around 45% are first-generation and 38% are Pell-recipients.

Description: Position Rank and Title: Assistant Professor Department: Anthropology Compensation: Commensurate with qualifications and experience (see Benefits Summary for details) Application Deadline: December 1, 2021 Target Start Date: August, 2022 First Review Date: December 8, 2021 Position Description The SJSU Anthropology Department invites applications for a full-time tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Applied-Cultural Anthropology beginning in August 2022, subject to budgetary approval. Applicants must have completed a PhD in anthropology or a closely related field before the position begins. The position requires an applied-cultural anthropologist able to use anthropology to address "real-world" problems in and between organizations, communities, and networks, and to actively participate in interdisciplinary collaborations. The department is particularly interested in an applied-cultural anthropologist with expertise in one or more the following areas: design anthropology; infrastructures; climate and environment; business anthropology; social dimensions of technological systems; economic anthropology; human-computer interactions; and medical anthropology, health, and health equity. The Anthropology Department has gained national recognition for its innovative graduate and undergraduate programs, particularly its M.A. Program in Applied Anthropology. The department is committed to applying anthropology in an integrated, interdisciplinary way-by reconnecting the discipline's subfields, making links with other SJSU departments through its Behavioral Science and Organizational Studies degree programs, launching a world-class graduate degree program in Applied Anthropology, and collaborating with organizations outside the University. The department's strategy has been to forge an approach that is both consistent with the integrity of the discipline and that addresses the needs of students and the region. Graduates apply social science skills for a wide range of public, private, and non-profit organizations including Google, Reddit, the American Red Cross, the National Park Service, Sacred Heart Community Services, the County of Santa Clara, Holman Associates, and many more. Anthropology faculty and staff share a commitment to supporting students at every stage through dedicated advising, professional development, and career consultation. The M.A. program in Applied Anthropology emphasizes individualized learning plans and projects rather than standardized training. This allows them to connect with faculty in other departments who can offer expertise in specific areas such as health sciences, geography, or urban planning. The program also gives students the option of developing and implementing projects that allow students to explicitly address real-world problems for partner organizations.
