Tenure-Track Assistant Professor in the Conservation of Cultural Heritage
The UCLA/Getty Interdepartmental Degree Program (IDP) in the Conservation of Cultural Heritage invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position to begin July 1, 2022. The appointment will be split 50:50 between the UCLA/Getty Conservation IDP and an appropriate home department depending on area of specialization.

Faculty duties include teaching at the graduate and undergraduate level, research, service, and supervision of student research in both the Conservation IDP and the home department.
Company
The aim of the UCLA/Getty Master's Program on the Conservation of Cultural Heritage is to provide students with a solid educational base and practical training in both archaeological and ethnographic materials, as well as an appreciation of the often complex range of issues relating to significance, access, and use of these materials, which—in many cases—sets them apart from fine art or historical materials. The program facilitates an understanding of the multiple values and meanings these materials may still have for indigenous populations, and fosters a sense of partnership with stakeholder communities in relevant aspects of conservation decision making.
