JOE - October 2012

The Economics Department is accepting applications for two new tenure track positions beginning fall 2013. The first position is focused on international development and gender. The second position is open, but fields in political economy, urban and regional, history of thought, and public sector economics are of particular interest. Teaching experience and a completed Ph.D. by fall 2013 are expected. Teaching duties include three courses per semester, typically split between principles and upper division courses; active research and publication is expected. We seek applicants with a passion for the highest quality undergraduate teaching, including heterodox approaches, applied fields, and interdisciplinary work. Domestic and international field experiences, mentoring undergraduate research, and innovative teaching approaches are strengths. Qualified female and minority candidates are particularly invited to apply. All applications received prior to November 26, 2012 will be considered for an ASSA meeting interview.

Application should include cover letter, c.v.; teaching portfolio to include statement of teaching philosophy, sample syllabi, and a summary of student evaluations; job market paper; graduate transcript; and three letters of recommendation which can attest to teaching effectiveness.
