The Department of Economics seeks applicants for multiple tenure-track positions. Exceptional candidates from all fields will be considered for these positions. The department is undertaking a major new expansion adding ten tenured and junior positions over the next five years. Evidence of excellence in research and teaching is essential. Compensation is competitive. Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, one or more research papers and three letters of recommendation for the Assistant Professor/Notre Dame positions to the online service EconJobMarket.org. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the positions are filled. For additional information, see http://economics.nd.edu. Applicants attracted to a university with a Catholic identity are especially encouraged to apply. Questions should be directed to Professor Eric Sims at esims1@nd.edu.

The University of Notre Dame seeks to attract, develop, and retain the highest quality faculty, staff and administration. The University is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and is committed to building a culturally diverse workplace. We strongly encourage applications from female and minority candidates and others that will enhance our community. Moreover, Notre Dame prohibits discrimination against veterans or disabled qualified individuals, and requires affirmative action by covered contractors to employ and advance veterans and qualified individuals with disabilities in compliance with 41 CFR 60-741.5(a) and 41 CFR 60-300.5(a).

Should an application result in an appointment, the appointment would be contingent upon the successful completion of a background check.  Applicants will be asked to identify all felony convictions and/or pending felony charges.  Felony convictions do not automatically bar an individual from employment.  Each case will be examined separately to determine the appropriateness of employment in the particular position.  Failure to be forthcoming or dishonesty with respect to felony disclosures can result in the disqualification of a candidate.  The full procedure can be viewed at http://facultyhandbook.nd.edu/university-policies/background-check-procedure-for-prospective-faculty/.
