Fluency with current >web design technologies (including ability to hand code HTML, CSS, >and Javascript), proven experience with Photoshop and Illustrator, >and familiarity with web accessibility and web usability standards >are essential. Some familiarity with web-database technologies >(MySQL, PHP), contemporary trends in web development (e.g., AJAX, >DHTML, Rails), and multimedia technologies (Flash, including >ActionScript, Final Cut Pro) is a plus, as is prior work in history >or the humanities. This is a grant-funded, two-year position. Apply >online (including resume, three references, links to prior web work, >and a cover letter describing technology background and any interest >in history) at http://jobs.gmu.edu for position 10397Z.
