Yale University’s Department of History of Art seeks an Assistant Professor of Medieval Art and Architecture, to begin July 1, 2025, who will complement our existing strengths in late Roman Italy, medieval Latin Europe, Buddhist East Asia and the early modern Islamic world. The geographical field is open, but expertise in the Mediterranean world, the Byzantine Empire, Central Asia, the Levant, northern and eastern Africa, or Islamic Iberia – and attention to the interconnections of a given area with other parts of the world – will be especially welcome.

Applicants must have met the requirements for a PhD or equivalent degree at the time of hire. The successful candidate will be prepared to teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in their area(s) of expertise, and to mentor students in the BA and PhD programs. They will be ready to engage with the interdisciplinary Medieval Studies community on campus and make use of the university’s resources in the art gallery and libraries.
