The Department of Humanities, Michigan Technological University,

Department is nationally-recognized for programs in rhetoric and

center studies, and international and intercultural communication,
among others. The Department of Humanities offers both the M.S.
and the Ph.D. in Rhetoric and Technical Communication, the

Scholars with interests in interdisciplinary humanities studies
or research projects in one or more of the following areas

- discursive or rhetorical dimensions of science or technology,

foreign languages, literary studies, philosophy, psychology,
or linguistics.

The Scholars' positions will appeal to faculty on sabbatical leave
and to holders of research grants. Applicants must have an earned

The Scholars' positions are available for a period of three months
