Assistant Professor, Turkish Studies

University of Arizona

The Department of Near Eastern Studies at the University of Arizona invites
applications for a tenure-track position in Turkish Studies at the Assistant
Professor level, to begin in the fall semester 2009. A Ph.D. upon date of
hire is strongly preferred, a demonstrated potential for excellence in
research and teaching is required, but the area of specialization is open.
Teaching requirements in the Turkish Studies program will include advanced
Turkish language and courses about modern Turkish culture, literature and
society. These courses would complement existing courses in Ottoman history,
the anthropological study of Turkey, Turkish language and linguistics, and
would expand departmental offerings. The successful candidate will teach
upper level courses in the Turkish language, courses in his or her field (or
interdisciplinary courses) at the graduate and undergraduate levels, and
participate in general education/social science or humanities courses as
needed. Competence in Ottoman Turkish will be regarded as an asset. The
department seeks to hire a candidate who is able to work with diverse
students and colleagues and one who is familiar with a variety of teaching
methods. She/he will play a key role in developing a coherent Turkish
studies program at the University of Arizona. We encourage early submission
of materials to arrange for preliminary telephone interviews and/or
preliminary interviews at the November MESA meeting in Washington, D.C.
Review of application materials will begin October 15, 2008 and continue
until the position is filled.

As an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer, the University of
Arizona recognizes the power of a diverse community and encourages
applications from individuals with varied experiences, perspectives and
backgrounds. The University of Arizona is an EEO/AA - M/W/D/V Employer. The
position is contingent upon availability of funding.
