Job description

The University of Austin (UATX) invites applications for a Visiting Professor of American History to teach in the Center for Economics, Politics & History for the Winter 2026 and Spring 2026 terms. A second year may be available, upon suitable job performance. The Center for Economics, Politics & History (CEPH) offers undergraduates a rigorous, interdisciplinary education in the social sciences.

Our curriculum emphasizes empirical analysis, economic growth, and the role of ideas and institutions in shaping public life. CEPH scholars study the Enlightenment principles behind the U.S. Constitution as well as the modern economic and technological forces that underpin American power, combining historical, political, and economic perspectives to understand the past century and beyond.

Review of applications will begin September 2025 and continue until the position is filled.
