The Department of History at Utah State University invites applications for an entry-level tenure-track assistant professorship in the history of the long 18th century in Europe (excluding Britain and Germany).  Preference will be given to candidates with expertise in gender, economic history, or the history of science, especially those who envision Europe in a broader global context.  Candidates should have an ability to teach modern western civilization surveys and to contribute to the department's graduate and undergraduate curricula.  Applicants with a PhD in hand at the time of application are preferred.  As part of a research university with a teaching mission, the department seeks colleagues with both university-level teaching experience and evidence of scholarly productivity.  Review of applications begins November 1, 2015, and the department expects to conduct phone interviews in December 2015 with on-campus visits to follow in early 2016.
