Open Rank Lecturer or Teaching Assistant Professor - History

The History Department in the College of Humanities & Social Sciences (CHASS) is a group of scholars covering many areas of specialization. We pride ourselves on outstanding teaching. We offer small classes that allow a great deal of individual attention. The History major is a place to get a "small college" education in a big state university. The department of thirty professors has about two hundred fifty majors in three undergraduate programs-the Bachelor of Arts, the Bachelor of Arts with a Teacher Education Concentration, the Bachelor of Arts with a Legal History Concentration, and the Bachelor of Sciences. All programs offer a great deal of student choice in courses and electives, allowing the pursuit of either a broad educational experience or a focused study. Our 80 student graduate program offers three distinct degrees: the M.A. in History, the M.A. in Public History, and the Ph.D. in Public History. However, all three degree programs require a strong foundation in traditional history.

We're excited to welcome new colleagues to our team for the 2025-2026 academic year!
