The DePaul University School of Music seeks a highly qualified musician and educator at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor to cultivate and lead a dynamic piano program. Responsibilities for this position include directing the keyboard program; teaching applied lessons to piano majors; coaching chamber music; teaching keyboard literature; and recruiting students at the undergraduate and graduate (MM and Post-Master's Certificate) levels to build and maintain the quality and visibility of the program. Additional areas of teaching and service may be determined depending upon school needs and the candidate's interests and expertise. As the only full-time piano faculty member at DePaul, the successful candidate will be an active performing artist who demonstrates fluid and facile technique, breadth of and curiosity about repertoire, and ongoing presence as a performer at national and international levels. They will enjoy the unique opportunity to shape a distinctive program in alignment with the School's Strategic Plan, launching in 2025. To enrich our programs and help drive recruitment, external institutional affiliations (e.g., summer festivals for pianists) are highly valued. Experience and commitment to working with students from diverse musical, social, and cultural backgrounds are essential. The DePaul School of Music particularly values colleagues who demonstrate a strategic mindset, high collaborative capacity, and dedication to the development of agile professionals. Recognized in Chicago and nationally, the DePaul School of Music is a forward-thinking institution that seeks to redefine the role of conservatory-based training in contemporary society. DePaul's location in the cultural capital of Chicago is a tremendous asset for our programs in performance, music education, composition, performing arts management, and sound recording technology.
