NYU Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) invites NYU faculty based in New York and Shanghai to express interest in offering courses to teach at NYUAD aligning with the curricular needs of our academic divisions: Arts & Humanities, Engineering, Science, and Social Science. Applicants are encouraged to review our current course offerings and Core Curriculum program. Previous teaching experience at NYUAD is not a requirement.
Located in the cosmopolitan city of Abu Dhabi, NYUAD serves as one of NYU’s portal campuses, fostering a dynamic intellectual environment that embraces diversity, innovation, and cross-cultural understanding. Our mission is to cultivate future leaders who are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and perspectives to address the complex challenges of our interconnected world. By engaging with NYU faculty from different departments and diverse backgrounds and disciplines, NYUAD offers a unique opportunity for interdisciplinary collaboration, academic enrichment, and the cultivation of the next generation of global citizens.
For planning purposes, teaching appointments are planned one year in advance. Appointment durations include:

One full academic year (successful candidates will teach a minimum of three full-semester courses and should expect to teach their standard NYU course load)
One semester (successful candidates will teach two full-semester courses)
7-week appointment in the fall or spring semester (successful candidates will teach one 7-week course)
Summer Term 2026

In addition to teaching, successful applicants should anticipate engaging in the full spectrum of normal responsibilities expected of NYU faculty. At NYUAD, this includes attendance and active participation in faculty meetings and committees, collaborative research endeavors with NYUAD students and faculty, stimulating discussions on topics pertinent to their expertise, mentoring of students and junior colleagues, and forging valuable partnerships to enrich NYU research endeavors.
Proposals will be reviewed by the NYUAD Deans and the NYU Associate Vice Chancellor for Global Network Faculty Planning. Teaching appointments are subject to the normal consultations and approvals by the relevant NYU School, Dean, and Department Chair, and are subject to final budget approval.
