Maynooth University is committed to a strategy in which the primary University goals of excellent research and scholarship and outstanding education are interlinked and equally valued.

Maynooth University Department of History (traditionally strongest in Irish and European history, complemented by American, military, and art history) seeks to strengthen and extend its existing undergraduate and postgraduate offerings.

The successful candidate will also share in the administrative duties of the Department. The appointee is also expected to sustain and conduct research, engage in scholarship of quality and substance and generate publications of a high standard.
