We are seeking a productive researcher, engaged scholar, and committed teacher/mentor who studies critical approaches to media industries and their intersections with media policy, political economy, advertising, and surveillance. The ideal candidate will be familiar with the historical and shifting structural and material conditions transforming the media industries, whether economic, technological, political, legal, regulatory, and socio-cultural factors. Of notable interest are critical scholars who consider how power operates within these industries and the larger socio-political relationships within which they are embedded.

The Annenberg School for Communication is a graduate school dedicated to the study of communication theory and research, with 24 full-time faculty members and approximately 80 doctoral students representing a diverse range of disciplinary backgrounds and interests. The faculty also has primary responsibility for an undergraduate communication major within the School of Arts and Sciences, serving students interested in the study of communication from a liberal arts perspective.

In addition to its doctoral program, the School offers a Master of Communication and Media Industries (MCMI) program, which enrolls cohorts of approximately 15 students seeking advanced professional training in media and communication. The ideal candidate would be expected to engage in the new MCMI program.
