Assistant Professor of English (Medieval/Renaissance) – Flagler College

Flagler College is seeking an Assistant Professor of English who specializes in the Medieval and/or Renaissance periods.  Secondary specializations are open, but someone with a strong generalist background and capable of teaching multiple areas at the undergraduate level would be especially welcome, as would the possible ability to teach Fiction in the Writing Track of our Major.

This is a full-time appointment at the Assistant Professor rank, slated to begin in August 2021.  Future promotion in rank based  upon review and evaluation of the successful candidate’s teaching, professional development/scholarship, and service in accordance with the College’s guidelines.

The annual teaching load is a 4/4.  The Fall schedule will include freshman composition and a variety of 300/400-level offerings; but in terms of specifics at the upper-division level the department will be flexible to accommodate the strengths/interests of the candidate.
