FACULTY POSITIONS
Clinical, Assistant and Associate Professors of Music
NYU Abu Dhabi

NYU Abu Dhabi currently seeks a number of dynamic and creative music
scholars and scholar-practitioners to teach within and across the
disciplines of musicology/ethnomusicology, theory/composition,
performance, and music technology/new media. The successful
candidate(s) will have a record of significant achievement in one or
more of the above areas, an adventurous program of research and/or
performance, and experience teaching at the undergraduate level.
Candidates with experience in academic leadership and/or curricular
development are particularly encouraged to apply.

New York University is working to establish itself as the world’s
first Global Network University: an international, organically
connected network of research and teaching sites encompassing key
global
cities and idea capitals. The network has three foundational,
degree-granting campuses: in New York, Abu Dhabi, and Shanghai. These
primary nodes are complemented by a network of over 15 research
and study-away sites across five continents. Faculty and students
circulate within this global network in pursuit of common research
interests, cross-cultural understanding, and solutions to problems of
local and global scope.

Entering its second year, NYU Abu Dhabi has already recruited an
exciting cohort of faculty who are distinguished in both research and
teaching. The initial incoming classes were drawn from around the
world and surpass all traditional recruitment benchmarks, both in the
United States and internationally. NYU Abu Dhabi’s highly selective
liberal arts college is complemented by an institute for advanced
research, sponsoring cutting-edge projects across the Arts,
Humanities, Social Sciences, Sciences, and Engineering.

The terms of employment are competitive and include housing and
educational subsidies for children. Faculty may also spend time at NYU
New York and other sites of the global network, engaging in both
research and teaching opportunities. The appointment might begin as
soon as September 1, 2012, or could be delayed until September 1,
2013.
Review of applications will begin December 1 and continue until the
positions are filled. Tenure-track and contract positions are
available at junior or senior ranks, depending on qualifications and
experience. Candidates should submit a letter describing their
experience and aspirations, a CV, and three letters of reference in
PDF format to be considered. Please visit our website at
