Tenure Track Position in Modern European Christianity – Princeton Theological Seminary

Application due September 7, 2024

Princeton Theological Seminary invites applications for a tenure-track position in modern European Christianity. Specialization and geographic focus are open. The successful candidate’s teaching and research will relate theological and ecclesiastical currents to broader contexts: for example, to histories of capitalism, colonialism, science, world wars, secularization, migration, religious pluralism, among others. The Seminary is especially interested in scholars whose work sheds light on the interconnectedness of Europe and the wider world.

This position is located in the Department of History and Ecumenics, and the successful candidate will teach in all of the Seminary’s degree programs (M.Div., M.A.C.E.F., M.A.T.S., M.A.T, M.T.E., Th.M., and Ph.D.), with shared responsibility for offering required courses and a broad range of electives that conform to the Seminary’s mission, the Department’s needs, and the appointee’s research interests. As Princeton Theological Seminary is related to the Presbyterian Church (USA), faculty members are expected to work constructively within an ecumenical ethos informed by the Reformed Tradition. The responsibilities of faculty members at Princeton Theological Seminary include: maintaining an active and excellent research program; supervising PhD students; mentoring students in all degree programs; service in faculty committees, meetings and programs; and active participation in the Seminary community’s life.

A letter of interest, curriculum vitae, and the names and contact information of three recommenders should be uploaded to the online application site at:    http://apply.interfolio.com/146365 .  Review of applications will begin September 7, 2024. Women and candidates from underrepresented communities are especially encouraged to apply. The appointment is expected to commence July 1, 2025.

Those wishing to nominate others for this position are invited to contact John R. Bowlin, Dean and Vice President of Academic Affairs, at academic.dean@ptsem.edu  .

Princeton Theological Seminary is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
