We cooperate with institutions that study and teach the history, literature, culture, and anthropology of Islamic societies, inside and outside the University of Vienna. We conduct research in countries of Islamic art and study artefacts in the extensive museum and library collections of Vienna and Austria.
What is important to us as a team is to foster exchange, discussion, and ideas in research; committed teaching and openness in communication.

**Inspiring working atmosphere**:You are a part of an international academic team, with an excellent research infrastructure, at one of the largest art history university departments in the world, in a relaxed working environment.
**Work-life balance**: You have flexible working hours with the option of working from home. You have a working sabbatical without teaching every fourth semester, intended to enable you to further concentrate on your doctoral thesis.
**Internal further training and coaching**:Opportunity to deepen your skills on an ongoing basis. There are over 600 courses to choose from - free of charge. We support your participation in scholarly workshops and conferences, and at summer schools.
**Life in Vienna**:Vienna has been voted the most liveable city worldwide several times in a row, including this year.
