The Setnor School of Music within the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Syracuse University is seeking applications for a non-tenure-track Assistant Teaching Professor in Choral Music. This is a three-year appointment starting August 2025, with the possibility of renewal based on exceptional performance and institutional need.

We seek an active choral conductor who has led excellent choirs of various ages and skill levels and has a strong teaching background.

Music has thrived at Syracuse University since 1877, when the Department of Music was founded, and Syracuse became the first university in the United States to grant a degree in music and require four years’ study in both music and theory. Now known as the Rose, Jules R., and Stanford S. Setnor School of Music, the school continues this proud tradition by offering professional-level training through challenging and relevant degree programs that allow talented musicians and future music industry leaders to excel both collectively and as individuals. The Setnor School of Music is an accredited charter institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Music (http://nasm.arts-accredit.org/) (NASM). Accredited programs at Setnor include music (B.S.); composition (B.M., M.M.); conducting (M.M.); music education (B.M., M.M., M.S.); music industry (B.M.); performance (B.M., M.M.); sound recording technology (B.M.); and voice pedagogy (M.M.).

We welcome candidates who bring a range of perspectives, backgrounds, and life experiences to the Setnor School of Music and who can help create a welcoming environment for all in the College of Visual and Performing Arts.
