The Arizona State University School of Music in the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts welcomes Dave Fossum as assistant professor in the musicology program, beginning in January 2019.
“We are thrilled to have attracted Dave Fossum to our faculty,” said Heather Landes, director of the school. “Dr. Fossum’s research interests in musics of the Middle East and Central Asia and issues related to intellectual property law, cultural policy, religion and language, complement our diverse offerings and will contribute greatly to our graduate programs in ethnomusicology and musicology as well as the undergraduate curriculum.”
Fossum is a passionate educator, researcher and musician whose work has implications for diverse disciplinary realms including the ethnography of law, global connection and development, semiotic anthropology and music theory.
