Three tenure-stream positions for Black scholars at University of British Columbia

This “cluster hire”, supported by the UBC Black Faculty Cohort Hiring Initiative, highlights the University’s and the Faculty’s commitments to enhancing the strength in the area of Black flourishing in education and aims to increase the representation of Black faculty across the spectrum of UBC’s teaching and scholarly activities. As a means of community support, the Faculty of Education has established a Black Faculty Circle, a collective of leading and prominent Black scholars in fields across the Faculty of Education, which meets regularly to provide opportunities for advancement, connection, mentorship, and affinity. In addition, the University’s Black Faculty Network provides space for Black colleagues to connect and establish community across disciplinary teaching and scholarly areas.
