Our Ability Jobs

Employer Name: Yale University

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 should include a cover letter describing their scholarly interests and teaching experience and/or plans. The most effective letters will demonstrate how the applicant's work connects to different facets of our department and university, and show how the applicant will bring new perspectives and paradigms to the department's curricular offerings and intellectual life. In addition to the substantive cover letter, applicants must submit a current curriculum vitae, a teaching portfolio (including at least two sample syllabi and statement of teaching philosophy), a writing sample of 6000-8000 words (a dissertation chapter, journal article, or book chapter), and three letters of recommendation. All materials must be submitted online through Interfolio at http://apply.interfolio.com/152041 . Review of applications will begin on November 4, 2024, with preliminary interviews to be held by mid-January. Please direct any questions to the chair of the search committee, Jacqueline Jung, at jacqueline.jung@yale.edu .
