Full time

In-Person

Start Date:

07/01/2027

Job Description:

The Department of English at Mount Holyoke College invites applications for an Assistant Professor of English who will hold the Suzan-Lori Parks '85 Chair in Creative Writing.

We seek a writer with a strong record of publication in creative nonfiction, including work in areas such as the personal essay and memoir, lyric essay, cultural criticism, science and environmental writing, literary journalism, and hybrid forms. Additional interests in fiction, translation, graphic narratives, podcasting, performance writing, experimental writing, and oral history are welcome. Mount Holyoke students are excited to learn from a writer whose work engages questions of race and ethnicity, particularly in relation to African American, Asian American, Indigenous, and/or Latinx literary lineages.

The position entails teaching introductory multi-genre creative writing courses, as well as advanced courses in creative nonfiction and other topics, for a total of 2 courses per semester. The successful candidate will collaborate within and beyond the English department to build our creative writing community and culture—through our InterArts Council and nationally renowned Glascock Intercollegiate Poetry Competition, as well as through thesis advising and mentoring of student literary projects.

We welcome candidates who demonstrate excellence in student-centered, reflective, and inclusive teaching practices and who display a robust commitment to collaboration and interdisciplinarity. The successful candidate will have a demonstrated record of strong teaching at the undergraduate level and experience mentoring students who are broadly diverse with regard to race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, nationality, sexual orientation, disability, and religion. MFA or Ph.D. or ABD required.

Candidates should submit a cover letter, CV, brief writing sample (up to 25 pages uploaded as one PDF), a one-page statement of teaching philosophy/practice, a one-page statement on mentoring a diverse student body, and two syllabi (one for an introductory creative writing course and the other for a creative non-fiction course). Please disregard the materials listed in the Special Instructions for Applications section below.

Reference letters will be requested at a later date in the process. Review of applications will begin September 18, 2026. Please contact the English department ([email protected]) with any questions.

Minimum starting rate of pay: $90,000.

Mount Holyoke College is located about 90 miles west of Boston in the Connecticut River valley, and is a member of the Five College Consortium consisting of Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith Colleges and the University of Massachusetts.
