The Department of History at Whitman College is seeking candidates for a one-year position in the History of Islamic Worlds, at the rank of visiting assistant professor, beginning August 2025. We seek a candidate whose research and teaching will offer avenues for interdisciplinary and cross-regional understandings of the many cultures and political systems that encompass historical experiences of Islam. We are therefore open to a variety of sub-fields that would bring new approaches to the Department and the College. These could include migration, science, technology, and medicine, post-colonial, and/or digital histories, potentially creating synergies with other existing or emerging interdisciplinary programs. A Ph.D. is required upon starting the position.
