Consideration will also be given to candidates at an advanced assistant rank (tenure track). The department seeks a leading scholar of demonstrated excellence with an ambitious research agenda, a significant publication profile, a commitment to teaching and mentorship at both undergraduate and graduate levels, and a readiness to articulate their own understanding of medieval pre-modernity in a changing discipline. While preference will be given to scholars whose geographical, temporal, or cultural focus complements existing strengths in the department, we welcome the broadest range of local, regional, transregional, or comparative approaches to the study of art and the built environment.
