The Department of Classics and Ancient History at Durham University invites applications for a Teaching Fellow in Classics with a particular expertise in the history of late antiquity, as well as the ability to teach Latin and Greek language and literature. Teaching Fellows normally have a teaching load of 4 modules in total, over the course of the year. Modules to be taught in AY 2023-24 include half of CLAS 1791 (Empire and Religion in the Age of Constantine); all of CLAS 3671 (The Late Roman World); all of CLAS 2191 (Advanced Latin 2a) and may also include teaching for existing modules in Greek or Latin language and literature. Please note that this role will not offer the opportunity to candidates to create a new module of the applicant’s choice. 

The post of Teaching Fellow will involve a significant teaching load, which may extend into the summer period, and there may be related scholarship and the opportunity for administrative duties which relate to education and pedagogy.

The post is for a fixed term only, 1st September 2023 to 31 December 2024 and it is not anticipated that the post will be extended beyond this fixed term.

Successful applicants will, ideally, be in post by 1st September 2023.
