Applicants must:

  • Have a PhD in a related discipline (criminology, sociology, archaeology, heritage studies, law, etc)
  • Have demonstrable expertise in some aspect of antiquities trafficking, art or heritage crime, heritage repatriation, or cultural property law
  • Have a strong interest in online teaching and distance learning, preferably with online teaching experience
  • Be comfortable in a digital environment using online tools and helping students do the same
