About The Position

The Art Department at Wellesley College seeks an architectural historian to teach two courses in the spring of 2027.

One course should be a survey-style class appropriate for intermediate students; the other should be a seminar appropriate for intermediate and advanced students. In addition to class meeting times, the candidate will hold regular office hours in person and promptly respond to student inquiries throughout the semester. There are no expectations for this position regarding formal advising. The candidate will be expected to engage in professional development and departmental service as outlined in the collective bargaining agreement.
