The Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of
Pittsburgh invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor
position with a specialization in late nineteenth- and early
twentieth-century Russian literature and culture to begin in August 2012,
pending budgetary approval. Ph.D. is required at the time of appointment.
Native or near-native (or ACTFL superior-level) proficiency in English and
Russian required. In addition to undergraduate- and graduate-level courses
in Russian literature and culture, the position may require teaching Russian
language at all levels (including content-based advanced courses) and
general-education literature and culture courses in English (both large
lecture-based courses and smaller discussion-oriented ones).

Applicants must demonstrate promise of significant scholarly achievement and
a strong interest and experience in teaching. Expertise in a second Slavic
language and literature, especially Polish or BCS, is desirable.

Candidates should arrange to submit a letter of application, CV,
representative student teaching evaluations, representative syllabi, samples
of scholarly writing (the length of one or two journal articles), and the
names and contact information for three persons able to provide confidential
professional letters of recommendation (we do not need the letters
themselves at this time, but we do need the names of the recommenders) by
surface mail to:

Russian Assistant Professor Search Committee
Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures
1417 Cathedral of Learning
University of Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh, PA 15260

Questions may be directed to Ms. Christine Metil, Department Administrator
(metil at pitt.edu, 1-412-624-5906).

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the
position is filled. Preliminary interviews will be held in Washington, DC
during the ASEEES conference (November 17-20) and Seattle, WA during the
AATSEEL conference (January 5-8).

The University of Pittsburgh is an Affirmative Action, Equal Opportunity
Employer. Women and members of minority groups under-represented in academia
are especially encouraged to apply.
