Assistant Professor in U.S. Urban History

Manhattan College's Department of History invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor in U.S. Urban History beginning in August 2013.  A specialization in New York City history is highly desirable.  Applicants must be competent to teach surveys of U.S. history from the colonial era to the present.  Teaching experience and a Ph.D. in hand by the time of appointment preferred.  Teaching load is seven courses per year (4/3), but a course reduction for research activity is possible.  For more information, visit us at http://www.manhattan.edu/academics/arts/history.
