Field of specialization: Archaeology and Material Culture, with competence in the Greek and Roman worlds

PhD relevant to the field of Classics is required. Candidates should have sufficient refereed publications (minimum three) to qualify for supervising graduate research at the University of Ottawa.
Most of the teaching at the undergraduate level will deal with the archaeology and art history of the classical period, as well as with ancient history more generally. At the M.A. level, teaching will focus on the period of Late Antiquity. Since the department is in the process of focussing its M.A. programme on Late Antiquity (A.D. 200-700), preference will be given to candidates with demonstrated research expertise in this period.

The successful candidate will be expected to teach and direct research at the undergraduate and graduate levels in both French and English, and this immediately and competently upon assuming the position. The bulk of the teaching load will be in English.
Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience, and consistent with the University's Collective Agreement.All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority. Equity is a University policy. The University strongly encourages applications from women. Applications, including a curriculum vitae, one or two recent publications, and three letters of reference, should reach the department by 17 November 2004. Address to:
