- The Carleton College Archaeology Program invites applications for a visiting position for the 2026-2027 academic year. This is a one-year, 0.67-time position, which will begin September 1, 2026. Candidates will ideally have a Ph.D. in hand by the start-date of the position (to be hired as a Visiting Assistant Professor). However, ABD candidates will also be
- considered (and would be hired at the rank of Visiting Instructor). This position will involve teaching four courses during Carleton's three academic terms (Fall, Winter, and Spring).
