The Vancouver School of Economics at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver Campus invites applications for up to 2 tenure-track positions at the level of Assistant Professor. Starting date: July 1, 2017.  We are seeking outstanding candidates primarily in the fields of Public Economics, Economic History, Labour Economics and Behavioural/Experimental Economics but in truly exceptional cases, candidates working outside of these fields may be given consideration.  Positions are subject to final budgetary approval.

Qualifications:
For appointment at the Assistant Professor level, the candidate must have a Ph.D. (or solid indication of imminent completion) in a relevant field, and demonstrate excellence or clear promise of excellence in teaching and in research. The successful candidate will be expected to maintain an active program of research, teaching, graduate supervision, and service. Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Applications must include a c.v., evidence of teaching effectiveness, samples of research papers, and at least three confidential reference letters which must be submitted directly by the referee. Application instructions and additional information about the School are available on our website at http://www.economics.ubc.ca. All application materials and reference letters should be submitted by November 15, 2016. Review of applications will begin immediately following this date.

The University of British Columbia hires on the basis of merit and is strongly committed to employment equity and diversity within its community. We especially welcome applications from members of visible minority groups, women, Aboriginal persons, persons with disabilities, persons of minority sexual orientations and gender identities, and others with the skills and knowledge to engage productively with diverse communities. We encourage all qualified persons to apply; Canadian citizens and permanent residents of Canada will, however, be given priority.
