Resident Instructor for 2025-2026, August through May; Rome, Italy.
Candidates must have good knowledge of Ancient Rome and Italy, eagerness for teaching undergraduates, and enthusiasm for participating flexibly in “The Ancient City,” a team-taught course led by the Centro’s 2025-2026 Professor-in-Charge, Andrew Goldman, which combines archaeology, history, topography, literature, and epigraphy. Candidates must also be able and eager to teach a course of their own design in either intermediate or advanced-level Greek or Latin that will appeal to the Centro’s diverse range of students. “The Ancient City” course will include up to three extended fieldtrips each semester: two of these trips will feature sites around the Bay of Naples and the third will focus on the ancient cities of Turkey. Accordingly, candidates should note their experience in those regions. Because full participation in excursions for “The Ancient City” course is an essential function of the Resident Instructor’s position, candidates must be able to traverse various types of terrain, including steep slopes and uneven ground, for significant distances, in addition to safely leading students through public transportation systems. The Resident Instructor resides at the Centro with the students enrolled in the program; background or previous experience with students in a similar environment should be noted in the application. Basic competence in spoken Italian is also desirable. Preference will be given to qualified applicants who have passed their doctoral qualifying examinations but are not planning to finish the dissertation during the ICCS teaching year.
The Intercollegiate Center does not provide H-1B or other immigration case sponsorship. Those hired must already be legally able to work for an American organization.
Letters detailing specific qualifications, a curriculum vitae, and (separately) two letters of recommendation, should be sent electronically ONLY to: Jessica Short, Administrative and Recruiting Assistant, Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome; assist@TheCentroRome.org.
Candidates should submit all application materials to arrive on or before November 1. Virtual interviews will be scheduled for December. The Intercollegiate Center is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer and actively encourages applications from members of groups underrepresented in academia.
