The Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) invites applications for Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) for its English program.

We have a vibrant faculty with diverse research interests and teaching portfolios covering areas such as Postcolonial Studies, British Literature, American Literature, Environmental Humanities, Women Studies, Modernist Literature and Creative Writing.
Applicants are ideally expected to have a Ph.D. by August 2024, which is when the appointment begins. We are especially interested in applicants with specialization in literary theory and digital humanities. The successful candidate will be required to teach undergraduate students, achieve high standards of research, serve on departmental/university committees, and provide input towards the development of the English Major at LUMS. As this is an on-campus position, the successful candidate will be expected to be physically on campus for teaching, research, and institutional responsibilities.
