RWU is now preparing a 4-year BA program in Liberal Arts with specialization in Latin or Classical Studies. A program with specialization in Ancient Greek is being considered for the future.

All teaching assignments will be based upon the interests and experience of the instructor.

Candidates should be willing to teach a variety of courses from the list below:

ABDs will be considered only if the applicant has exceptional qualifications and can demonstrate substantial progress toward the completion of the doctorate. Applicants are invited to explore our website http://www.robertwelchuniversity.org to become acquainted with RWU's core values and mission. There is no closing date as RWU accepts applications on an ongoing basis.
