Roman History and Culture
Department of Classics
VPA-CLAS-2006-001

The Department of Classics invites applications for a definite tenure-track appointment. The department is particularly interested in a specialist in Roman history and culture. We seek candidates who demonstrate enthusiasm for teaching Greek and Latin, as well as a wide range of courses in translation. The successful applicant will be expected to contribute to both undergraduate and graduate programs in a rejuvenated department. Applicants must provide evidence of teaching and research. Ph.D. in hand or near completion preferred. Letters of application should be sent to the Head of the department, accompanied by a current curriculum vitae, a teaching dossier, a sample of academic writing, the names and addresses of three persons who can supply a letter of reference, and such additional materials as may be specified. Applications should reach the Head no later than November 10, 2006. For information about the Department of Classics, please visit our website at http://www.arts.mun.ca/classics/. Applications should be directed to: Dr. T.J Allen, Head, Department of Classics, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, NL, Canada, A1C 5S7; Phone: (709) 737-8593; Fax: (709) 737-2135; email: tallen@mun.ca.

The position will normally commence July 1, 2007, subject to budgetary approval, and will be made at the rank of Assistant Professor. All positions normally require a completed doctoral degree in the appropriate discipline. A completed earned doctorate is required for the appointee to receive the rank of Assistant Professor and to be in a tenure-track position. (If a successful candidate has not completed an earned doctorate, he/she shall be appointed to a regular term, non-renewable three-year appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor. If the candidate completes all the requirements for the doctorate during the first 24 months of the term appointment, he/she shall begin a tenure-track appointment following completion of the requirements of the degree).
