John Cabot University, an accredited American liberal arts university in Rome, Italy, invites applications for a Full-time Assistant or Associate Tenure-Track Professor in Art History.
We seek applicants with a PhD in Art History or equivalent field, demonstrated excellence in teaching and research, and commitment to academic service and program development for both BA and MA Art History degree programs. Preference will be given to candidates with a specialization in art of the Early Modern period (c. 1400-1800), but exceptional candidates in other fields are encouraged to apply. Special consideration will be given to candidates with expertise in art of more than one geographical area and/or experience of teaching at the graduate level. An ability to teach courses on art in Rome and Italy is expected.
Candidates should be fluent in English, which is the language of instruction, and have permission to work in the European Union. Familiarity and experience with the American liberal arts educational tradition will be considered an advantage.
The successful candidate will be expected to start in Fall semester 2024. The initial appointment is for two years with the possibility of tenure. They will be expected to teach three courses per semester at all academic levels, to undertake research, and to be an active member of the university community.
