Job Description
Tenure-track Assistant Professor
History, Theory, and Criticism of Art
University of San Diego
The Department of Art of the University of San Diego invites
applications for a full-time tenure track position at the rank of
assistant professor to begin September 2010. The successful candidate
will help develop a new undergraduate curriculum that emphasizes
translations and connectivity across the arts, cultures, and
continents. Candidates should be able to teach advanced topical
courses on the diverse artistic practices and visual cultures in Asia—
broadly conceived, encounters between Asian and non-Asian cultures
throughout history, colonial histories, or the condition of the arts
and artists in times of global flows, migrations and diasporas.
We seek an individual who demonstrates potential for advanced research
and scholarship in the history and theory and criticism of art and who
can devise innovative strategies to teach in a pluralistic and multi-
disciplinary department. The Department of Art promotes academic
excellence with small-size classes, seminar-style teaching, faculty-
student collaboration and close mentoring. Faculty are eligible for
internal Faculty Research Grants (FRG), Large FRG’s, research travel
allowances, publication subsidies, and course reductions, and are
expected to sustain a clear agenda in research and publications.
The University of San Diego’s Department of Art encompasses art
history and visual arts majors, a new curriculum in architecture, and
an interdisciplinary program, Art, Technology and Critical Studies.
Our art history faculty are particularly interested in the
historiography of modern art and architecture, the intersections
between art and politics, and critical issues concerning the
production, reproduction, and display of art.
Candidates are required to hold a Ph.D. or A.B.D. in art history,
visual culture, or allied fields. Applications should include a letter
delineating research and teaching interests, curriculum vitae, syllabi
of a minimum of two courses you would like to teach at the University
of San Diego (one introductory course, and one advanced undergraduate
seminar), representative writing samples, and contact information for
three recommenders. Please explain in your letter how you may
contribute to our evolving curriculum in the history, theory and
criticism of art. Please include a SASE only if you require the return
of your publications/writing samples. For priority consideration
materials should be received by November 20, 2009.
