Applications are invited for the Terra Foundation for American Art Visiting Professorship for the 2024/25 academic year at Oxford University. This post, which is generously funded by the Terra Foundation for American Art, will be based in the History of Art Department (which is part of Oxford’s History Faculty) and is offered in association with a Visiting Fellowship at Worcester College.

This post provides an exciting opportunity to build on long-term research networks, encourage international collaboration, and inspire a new generation of American art academics and curators by further embedding the subject into Oxford’s research communities and its graduate and undergraduate curricula. The successful candidate will engage in advanced study and original research in the history of American art, give a series of four public lectures, and organise a study day. They will also teach one undergraduate and one graduate course, supervise a small number of Master’s theses, and contribute to the Department’s general teaching and administration

The successful candidate will hold a doctorate and teaching experience in a relevant field, have a strong research record and/or research potential with a reputation as an international authority within the specialism and a publication record at a standard that will contribute to and enhance the national and international profile of the History of Art Department and History Faculty.

Applications are particularly welcome from women, from disabled people and from people of Black,

Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds, as these groups are currently under-represented in

the College’s and Faculty’s academic staff.

The post is fixed term for 12 months (or until 31 August 2025, whichever is sooner). The deadline for applications is 12 noon (UK time) on Monday 23 October 2023. Interviews are expected to take place online via Microsoft Teams on Wednesday 15 November 2023
