Africana Studies Jobs

The Department of Black/Africana Studies is committed to providing students with the opportunity to critically study the intellectual history, culture, and lived experience of Black people.

The Africana Research Center at The Pennsylvania State University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar. The postdoctoral fellow must be in residence at Penn State's University Park campus for the duration of their appointment. During their residency, scholars must conduct research in any aspect of African, African American, and/or Diaspora Studies.

The department is currently seeking qualified instructors who are well-versed in Afrocentric and/or African-centered epistemologies, which is the basis of Africana Studies, to teach courses specific to the discipline.
