Misericordia University’s English Department seeks to hire a tenure-track, assistant professor of English with a Ph.D. in 19th century British literature completed before 15 August 2010. Preference will be given to candidates with a secondary specialty in writing, as the University is currently revising its Core Curriculum, including its writing requirements. In addition to upper-level courses for the English major, the successful candidate must demonstrate strength in teaching writing and survey courses.
We will interview candidates at the MLA convention in December. Please send a letter of application, c.v., and full dossier (including three letters of recommendation) to the address below postmarked by 20 November 2009:
