University of Mississippi Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology

The University of Mississippi invites applications for a Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology. This is a one year position beginning August 2012 but the successful candidate will have the opportunity to apply for an anticipated tenure track position in an open search in the fall of 2012. We are looking for a biological anthropologist with a traditional, four-field education. A background in osteology with an area interest in the southeastern United States or Mesoamerica would allow this person to take advantage of opportunities for research collaboration within the department. Ph.D.'s and advanced ABD’s will be considered.
