We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Museum and Heritage
Studies within the School of Art History. This is a five-year, fixed-term post

heritage, climate action and/or sustainability.
You should already have or be close to completing a
Ph.D. Experience of working in the museum/galleries sector will be an advantage.
You will deliver a varied programme of teaching and supervision on the MLitt
programme in Museum and Heritage Studies, in collaboration with staff in the
School of Art History, the University of St Andrews Museums team, and across
the University. You will also be involved in the preparation and delivery of
online teaching for the part-time Museum and Heritage Studies course, launching
as a distance learning course in September 2023.
The MLitt in Museum and Heritage Studies at the
University of St Andrews is distinctive in its combination of theory and
practice. Run by the Graduate School for Interdisciplinary Studies, in
association with the School of Art History and the Museums of the University of
St Andrews, it prepares students for employment in museums, with broad training
in all types of museums, galleries and other heritage organisations. Student
learning takes place through a range of offerings including individual work
placements, public engagement projects, and taught modules such as The
Museum: Global Perspectives and Debates. The successful candidate will be
based in the School of Art History and will contribute to teaching and research
in the School of Art History more broadly.
Further information and informal enquiries may
be directed to the Head of the School of Art History, Professor Linda Goddard;

Applications
are particularly welcome from women, people from the Black, Asian and Minority
Ethnic (BAME) community, and other protected characteristics who are
under-represented in Arts posts at the University.

diversity and inclusion are at the heart of the St Andrews experience. We strive to create a fair and inclusive
