Faculty Position in Early Modern Philosophy
The Philosophy Department at Lehigh University invites applications for a tenure-track position in Philosophy at the rank of Assistant Professor. AOS: Early Modern Philosophy; AOC: an additional historical period, pre-1600 preferred. The department is especially interested in candidates who will contribute to the diversity and inclusiveness of the philosophy program through their research and teaching. Applicants must have received the Ph.D. or equivalent degree in Philosophy no later than July 1, 2017, and must demonstrate achievement in scholarship and teaching.
The department is looking for candidates who can flourish in a collegial, eclectic department that firmly values the history of philosophy, and who are committed to teaching undergraduates and to participating actively in programs outside the department. We seek qualified candidates who have produced and will continue to produce original philosophical scholarship, who have broad intellectual interests, and who will foster enthusiasm for philosophy in undergraduates majoring across the university. Women and members of underrepresented minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities include active scholarship, excellent undergraduate teaching at all levels, undergraduate thesis supervision, student advising activities, and service to the department, college, and university. Course load is two courses per semester. Summer teaching is available.

Lehigh University seeks faculty with both disciplinary expertise and broad interests and expects its faculty to demonstrate excellence in both scholarship and teaching. The university also seeks faculty who will promote an inclusive community that values, affirms, and advances the diverse backgrounds, interests, experiences, and aspirations of all its members. The College of Arts and Sciences is committed to hiring individuals who will be successful at Lehigh, who are dedicated to the highest quality instruction, have a desire to lead advances within their fields, and have an interest in ensuring the success of the institution and their professions. The College is committed to increasing the diversity and inclusion of the college community and curriculum.
Applications will be accepted only through AcademicJobsOnline (https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/8057) and should include (1) letter of application, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) two samples of written work, (4) research statement, (5) teaching statement, (6) evidence of teaching excellence, and (7) three confidential letters of reference.
