**IST-6040: Research Methods and Design for Island Studies**

This graduate course introduces students to the research designs, methods, and methodologies associated with Island Studies scholarship. It addresses a broad survey of the kinds of questions students will encounter when they read research that has been undertaken by others and when they undertake their own research. Although there is some complementarity with research designs and methods used in other disciplines, this course focuses on research within the context of small islands.

The successful applicant should have a Doctoral degree in a relevant discipline or area of study, preferably in Island Studies, or in a related discipline. Those with a Master’s degree and at least two years of teaching experience would also be considered for the position. Demonstrated experience in undertaking and evaluating research methods and designs is required; experience working in a university setting, and knowledge of the research process and of island studies, is preferred.

Applicants should submit an updated curriculum vitae and the names of two references, electronically, to:
