  • Part-Time Lecturer in Transgender Science (Spring 2026)
    School of Arts & Sciences: Science, Technology, and Society
    Tufts University


    The Science, Technology, and Society (STS) program at Tufts University is seeking a part-time lecturer for the Spring 2026 semester. The candidate will teach one course of their own design in the area of transgender science.


    This course should teach students key concepts and methods in both STS and feminist science studies. It will count as a core course toward the STS co-major. We expect enrollment for this course to be 25-40 students.





    About STS@Tufts: Science, Technology, and Society at Tufts draws on humanities and social sciences approaches to study science and technology in their social context. We have more than 40 faculty affiliates across Tufts University—from anthropology, biology, classics, education, engineering, history, mathematics, music, philosophy, physics, political science, urban and environmental policy and planning, and many more. This makes the STS program a site for rich cross-pollination of ideas and expertise. A weekly STS lunch seminar fosters conversations and engagement with diverse outside experts working in STS. 




    An interdisciplinary STS major and minor have been available at Tufts since Spring 2016. Training in STS prepares students for an extremely wide range of future careers, not only within academia but also in research, journalism, education, medicine, and policy and planning related to science and technology.




     


    Qualifications


    A PhD in STS or an STS-adjacent field, with specific expertise in feminist science studies and transgender science. Candidate should be able to show evidence of excellence in teaching and an ability to engage with diverse students with different pedagogies.
