Department of Chicano and Latino Studies and Spanish Program in the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures at Sonoma State University seek a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Latinx Studies, with a focus on the diverse, multilingual educational contexts between Mexico/Central America and the United States, particularly California, and the broader cultures of the larger Spanish-speaking world, beginning Fall 2025.

The candidate will teach and develop lower-division and upper-division courses with the opportunity to create innovative classes in their area/s of expertise and interest within the Spanish Program and in Chicano and Latino Studies.

In addition to teaching and scholarship, faculty are expected to engage in service to the University, profession, and community.  These responsibilities include:  advising students, participation in campus and system-wide communities, maintaining office hours, working collaboratively and productively with colleagues, and participating in traditional academic functions.

Both Chicano and Latino Studies and the Spanish Program are committed to serving our core constituency of Latinx First Generation College students through excellence in teaching, and the candidate will contribute their experience and interest to this shared departmental priority. The Chicano and Latino Studies Department and the Spanish Program play an integral and growing role at Sonoma State University being a Hispanic Serving Institution as well as a student centered campus that prizes its commitment to teaching in the liberal arts tradition. We envision a collaboration with substantial mutual benefits between Chicano and Latino Studies and the Spanish Program to serve the whole diverse community of Latinx students, including their families and communities.
