Building on its more than 500-year-long tradition, it offers a broad spectrum that covers all areas of knowledge within its 18 Faculties, ranging from the humanities, law, economics and social sciences, to medicine and the natural sciences.
The Faculty of History and the Arts invites applications for a
Professorship (W2) (6 years/tenure track)

The subject of the professorship's research is the premodern history of Ukraine/Central and Eastern Europe in its transnational European context. The holder of the professorship should be distinguished by experience in the methods of entangled history. The successful candidate will be expected to teach in the Master's degree program in Eastern European Studies at LMU Munich and the University of Regensburg. Interdisciplinary competence, especially with regard to social and cultural sciences, is therefore required. Applicants should be very proficient in the relevant languages.

Prerequisites for this position are a university degree and a doctoral degree or a comparable specific qualification. With an excellent record in research and teaching to date, prospective candidates will have demonstrated the potential for an outstanding academic career.
The initial appointment will be for six years. After a minimum of three years, it can be converted into a permanent position pending a positive evaluation of the candidate’s performance in research and teaching as well as his or her personal aptitude and if all legal conditions are met.
LMU Munich makes a point of providing newly appointed professors with various types of support, such as welcoming services and assistance for dual career couples.
LMU Munich is an equal opportunity employer. The University continues to be very successful in increasing the number of female faculty members and strongly encourages applications from female candidates. LMU Munich intends to enhance the diversity of its faculty members. Furthermore, disabled candidates with essentially equal qualifications will be given preference.
