The Department of Art History at The University of Auckland, New Zealand, is seeking to appoint a Lecturer (tenure track) to teach in the fields of modern and contemporary art and theory. The successful applicant will have a PhD in a relevant area, as well as teaching experience and a track record in research and publication.

He or she will be expected to teach at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, to supervise Masters and Doctoral research students, and to be currently pursuing an active research programme. In a small department all staff necessarily undertake some administrative responsibilities, and we seek someone who will be prepared to play an energetic and collegial role. An ability to contribute to the Postgraduate Programme in Museums and Cultural Heritage would also be an asset.

The department’s website can be viewed at www.arts.auckland.ac.nz/ahi

The closing date is 22 July 2009.
