The Colgate University Music Department invites applications for a tenure
stream assistant professor of music position as Director of Choral
Programs, beginning fall semester, 2022. DMA preferred, but
applications from ABD candidates will also be accepted.
Responsibilities include directing the University Chorus and Chamber
Singers and teaching music appreciation, harmony, and basic
musicianship and songwriting. We especially welcome applicants with an
interest in innovative and diverse programming (both within and beyond
the traditional choral repertory), and with opportunities for
collaboration across the arts and other disciplines. The successful
candidate will fulfill the expectation that all Colgate faculty
participate in all-university programs, including the Liberal Arts
Core Curriculum. In addition to teaching and service,
scholarship–which, for the choral conductor, is defined as
performances, reviews, recordings and/or publications will be required
for tenure and promotion. Application materials, comprising a cover
letter, curriculum vitae, and three current reference letters must be
submitted through https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/program/21194.
Colgate strives to be a community supportive of diverse perspectives
and identities. Candidates should describe in their cover letter how
their approach to teaching and scholarship might create an inclusive
educational environment. Review of applications begins on March 18 and
will continue until the position is filled. Colgate is a vibrant
liberal arts university of 3200 students situated in central New York.
Colgate faculty are committed to excellence in both teaching and
scholarship. Applicants with dual-career considerations can find
