McMaster University: Greek Historian (tenure track)

The Department of Classics at McMaster University invites applications
for a tenure-track appointment in Ancient Greek History at the Assistant
or Associate Professor level to commence July 1, 2004.

McMaster University is a research intensive university and the
Department of Classics has undergraduate degree programmes in Greek,
Latin, and classical culture, as well as programmes leading to the M.A.
and Ph.D. degrees.

The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in Classics or Ancient
History, with specialization in Ancient Greek History and demonstrated
excellence in teaching and research, with a clearly defined research
programme  which will result in publication.  The successful candidate
will be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses in ancient
history (including Greek historical writers in the original) and
classical culture and to contribute to all aspects of the Department's
graduate programme.  The ability to teach courses in Greek and Latin is
essential.  The ability to teach an undergraduate course in
non-Graeco-Roman civilizations will be considered an advantage.

Applicants should send a letter of application, together with a
curriculum vitae and a sample of their writing, to Dr. Howard Jones,
Chair, Department of Classics, McMaster University, 1280 Main West,

The Department expects to be conducting interviews at the January 2004
meeting of the American Philological Association in San Francisco.

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and
Permanent Residents will be given priority.  McMaster University is
strongly committed to employment equity within its community, and to
recruiting a diverse faculty and staff.  The University encourages
applications from all qualified candidates, including women, members of
visible minorities, Aboriginal persons, members of sexual minorities,
and persons with disabilities.
