ABD candidates will be considered for the rank of assistant professor, but an earned doctoral degree is expected by the August 10, 2020 start date.

Preferred Qualifications: Preference will be given to those with a Ph.D. at time of application. William & Mary is especially interested in candidates who can contribute, through their research, teaching, and mentorship of students, to the diversity of the academic community.
