The Department of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in the area of Critical Heritage Studies in Archaeology, with an expected start date of July 1, 2025.

The ideal candidate would address the emerging field of critical heritage studies. Scholarship in critical heritage studies addresses topics stemming from the definition of heritage concepts by international bodies like the United Nations, national governments, and global nongovernmental agencies, and engages with past work on tourism and development that potentially commodifies aspects of culture, particularly of traditional, tribal, or indigenous peoples.

Rooted firmly in anthropological archaeology, critical heritage studies ask how power is present in the definition of legitimate participants in the identification, curation, management, and dissemination of aspects of cultural practices (intangible heritage), objects subject to international trafficking, and sites or places identified as of historical significance through local, national, and international processes.

Both archaeological and ethnographic scholarship can be part of the research program.

Successful candidates will demonstrate evidence of a commitment to advancing equity and inclusion, ongoing research (active research in museums, archives, or field sites), teaching effectiveness, and excellence in mentoring and teaching in a diverse university setting.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values at UC Berkeley and the Department of Anthropology. Our excellence can only be fully realized by faculty, students, and staff who share our commitment to these values.
