Associate Professor (endowed chair)

The Johns Hopkins William H. Miller III Department of Philosophy (Baltimore, MD) seeks a philosopher of outstanding international reputation to fill an endowed and named position at the rank of tenured Associate Professor. This position is for someone who specializes in the history of philosophy, broadly construed to include, but not be limited to, Kant and German Idealism, the history of analytic philosophy, the history of a non-Western philosophical tradition, and other areas in the history of philosophy. (We have posted a distinct, open position for candidates not in the history of philosophy.) Job duties will include teaching undergraduate and graduate courses in philosophy, conducting research in the candidate's areas of specialization, advising undergraduate and graduate students, and standard service duties as assigned. 
 
William H. Miller’s transformative $75 million gift to the Philosophy Department reflects his lifelong appreciation of the discipline and seeks to establish the Johns Hopkins Philosophy Department as one of the world’s leading departments. This addition will continue a major expansion of the Department.
