The Director will hold a half-time appointment in the Museum/Lab and a
half-time appointment in an appropriate department within the College of
Arts and Sciences, such as Folklore & Ethnomusicology or Anthropology.


Qualified candidates should be prepared to present a vision of how they
will develop, lead, and enhance the Museum/Lab, as well as how they will
contribute to their home department. Applicants must possess
qualifications suitable for a tenured faculty appointment and should
demonstrate experience in museum leadership, distinguished scholarship,
and a commitment to teaching both disciplinary and museum-related
courses.


The Museum?s ethnological collections are worldwide in scope and include
both material culture objects and major photographic holdings. The Lab?s
archaeological collections derive from the Great Lakes-Ohio Valley area,
particularly the State of Indiana, and serve as the focus of the Lab?s
research. The Museum/Lab is a vital component of the University?s
research, teaching, and public missions; the Director is expected to
participate fully in all of these activities through the Museum/Lab and
his or her home department.


Applicants should submit a cover letter, complete curriculum vitae, and
the names and contact information of four references. Nominations are
welcome; please submit names by January 2, 2012. Materials should be
sent to Professor Ruth M. Stone, Chair, Search and Screen Committee,

they may be sent electronically to David Taylor at dltaylor at indiana.edu.
Applications received by January 31, 2012 will be assured of
consideration. Indiana University Bloomington is an EEO/AA employer.
