External Job Posting: UC Davis Anthropology is Searching for a Scholar of Palestine Studies

The Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Davis, seeks to hire a sociocultural anthropologist of Palestine. The appointment will be made at the assistant or associate professor rank. A Ph.D. in Anthropology or related discipline must be completed by the first day of courses (September 2025).

We seek a scholar with a cutting-edge, ethnographically-grounded research agenda whose work addresses key topics in Palestine Studies. This hire would complement existing departmental theoretical and methodological strengths as well as work collaboratively with scholars doing research and teaching on the Middle East across the College of Letters and Science.

The proposed start date is July 1, 2025. Teaching duties will be four courses per academic year (quarter system) at the introductory, advanced undergraduate, and graduate level. The University of California, Davis, and the Department of Anthropology are interested in candidates who are committed to the highest standards of scholarship and professional activities, and to the development of a campus environment that supports equality and diversity.
