In this paper we consider an age-structured epidemic model of the susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) type. To characterize the seasonality of some infectious diseases such as measles, it is assumed that the infection rate is time periodic. After establishing the well-posedness of the initial-boundary value problem, we study existence of time periodic solutions of the model by using a fixed point theorem. Some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the obtained results.
