Assistant Professor, Tenure-track, American Art
Institution Type: | College / University |
Location: | California, United States |
Position: | Tenure Track Faculty |
The Department of Art and Art History at Stanford University invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor in American art and visual and material culture. The Department seeks a scholar with an innovative approach to art history and visual culture; the beginnings of a strong publication record; and an interest in both canonical and under-represented histories and genres of American art. It is expected that the successful applicant’s specific field of study will complement the expertise of the Art History faculty currently teaching in the Department. Specialization in African-American or Native American art is desirable but not required. The successful applicant will teach four courses a year, at both the undergraduate and graduate level, in both lectures and seminars; be responsible for advising Ph.D. students; and help to build the department’s interdisciplinary connections to other programs and areas of study at the university.
The position will begin on September 1, 2015. Interested candidates should post a letter detailing the direction of current research and teaching objectives, a CV, a writing sample, and the names of three recommenders online at: apply.interfolio.com/25215. No hard copy applications will be accepted. The deadline for completed applications is October 15, 2014.
Stanford University is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty. It welcomes nominations of, and applications from, women, and members of minority groups, protected veterans, and individuals with disabilities, as well as others who would bring additional dimensions to the university's research and teaching missions.
