CAREERS FOR MEDIEVALISTS?

16 MARCH 2024, 10:00-17:30 GMT

VERNON SQUARE CAMPUS, LECTURE THEATRE 2, COURTAULD INSTITUTE OF ART, LONDON

Sponsored by the British Archaeological Association, this event aims to demonstrate the range of career options available to medievalists, especially those studying in Art History and adjacent disciplines such as History, Archaeology and Heritage Studies. Recent graduates and those in recruitment positions will offer tips and advice on a range of careers, including

  • Heritage and Conservation

  • Curating and the art market

  • Tour guiding and freelancing

  • Universities

  • Archives and libraries

  • Publishing and editing

Tickets cost £12, which covers the lunch, tea/coffee and cake provided to all attending. Talks will also be recorded and posted online after the event.

In recognition of the need to diversify the field of medieval studies, the British Archaeological Association can offer a limited number of bursaries to subsidize ticket and travel costs. For further details follow this link.

The event will run from 10-5.30pm on Saturday 16th March, and follows The Courtauld’s Medieval Postgraduate Colloquium on Friday 15th March. It will be held in the lecture theatre at The Courtauld’s Vernon Square campus in London, a 10-minute walk from Kings Cross Station.

Organised by Dr Tom Nickson (The Courtauld)
