Job Announcement: UCLA Professor of Law – Emphasis on Mentorship
The UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center (CSRC) is thrilled to promote the following opportunity to hire a Professor of Law as part of the UCLA Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) Infrastructure Initiative. In preparation for UCLA’s goal to achieve the federal designation as a Hispanic Serving Institution, the Office of the Chancellor and the Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost is sponsoring faculty searches in order to recruit exceptional scholars whose teaching, scholarship and/or mentoring has strong ties to Latinx experiences in the United States. Faculty hired through these searches are expected to maintain an active affiliation to the CSRC and encourage the success of Latinx and first-generation scholars.

○ Next Review Date: Thursday, October 31, 2024
○ Final Date: Saturday, May 31, 2025
The UCLA School of Law invites applications for a full-time, tenured faculty position at the Professor rank. As a public higher education institution in California committed to inclusive excellence, the UCLA School of Law has increasingly reflected the state’s gender and ethnic/racial composition, enrolling a growing number of students who identify as Latina. As such, we specifically seek scholars with significant academic distinction and extensive experience in mentoring historically underrepresented students, scholars, and/or practitioners, including, a demonstrated commitment to the advancement of Latinas in academia and legal professions. Successful applicants are expected to continue and expand on their track record of mentoring Latinas and other historically underrepresented students and/or legal scholars. Teaching and service expectations will not exceed those of other faculty positions. Applicants may demonstrate substantive expertise in any subfield of law, but we especially encourage applicants with expertise in legal issues relevant to women in Latinx communities.
