The Classics Department at the University of Dallas invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Classics. U.D. is a Catholic university with a classically oriented, 20-course core program, and we seek candidates who have a strong desire to teach at such a place. We therefore welcome candidates who, although thoroughly trained in classics, could also teach in the core. The standard teaching load is 3/3.

The successful candidate for the Assistant Professor position will teach undergraduate classes in Latin and Greek at all levels, and classics in translation. The main desiderata in any candidate are skill in Latin and Greek and a love of classical literature. Imminent completion of the Ph.D. is required.

Applications: please send a complete dossier, including a cover letter, CV, transcript, at least three letters of recommendation, and a writing sample of no more than 25 pages to David Sweet, Chair of Classics, 215 Carpenter Hall, University of Dallas, Irving, TX 75062. Applicants are encouraged to submit materials via email to dsweet@udallas.edu. Applications will be read until the position is filled, but first consideration will be given to candidates who submit their materials by December 1, 2014.
