Job Description
Faculty of Humanities, Institute of Art History
The Faculty of Humanities at the University of Tübingen invites applications for the position of a Tenure-Track Professor of Art History (Early Modern) (m/w/d) to commence as soon as possible.
Requirements for applicants are an outstanding PhD dissertation as well as research and teaching that go beyond the PhD. The holder of the position is expected to have a research focus on early modern art (from 1500-1800). A proven interest in the field of spatial art and/or architectural history are desirable. In addition to participation in the department’s teaching, the ability and willingness to cooperate on an interdisciplinary basis and, in particular, to participate in interdisciplinary programs and research networks (esp. the CRC 1391) as well as relevant university centres within the faculty and beyond are expected.
This position is initially limited to four years, with the possibility of an extension by a further two years in case of a positive interim evaluation. The position has a teaching load of four hours per week prior to interim evaluation, and six hours thereafter. This tenure-track professorship will be upgraded to a full (W3) professorship with no re-advertising of the position. The appointment prerequisites of § 51 LHG apply. Those who have completed a habilitation will be excluded.
Detailed information on the criteria underlying the interim evaluation and promotion to the tenured position can be found in our guidelines for tenure review under the following link: https://uni-tuebingen.de/de/12131 . There you can also find information on this employment category.
Applicants for a Tenure-Track professorship with a PhD from Tübingen must have changed universities after completing their doctorates or have worked in academia and/or research for at least two years somewhere other than the University of Tübingen.
The University of Tübingen is committed to equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. Female scientists, in particular, are explicitly invited to apply, as are applicants from outside Germany.
Applications from equally qualified candidates with disabilities will be given preference.
General information on professorships, hiring processes, and the German academic system can be found here: https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/213700
Applications including all required documents (cover letter, curriculum vitae, copies of degree documents/ diplomas/ certificates, list of publications and teaching experience, teaching evaluations, research and teaching statement; teaching evaluations) as well as a selection of relevant publications (possibly a selfauthored monograph and up to five essays) must be submitted exclusively via the university’s Appointment Portal by 10 September, 2025. Enquiries may be directed to the Dean of the Faculty of Humanities, Prof. Dr. Angelika Zirker berufungen@philosophie.uni-tuebingen.de
