In particular, the department also welcomes applicants whose specialization extends to other areas of applied microeconomics or applied macroeconomics, but whose research, in substance and/or methodology, emphasizes consumer and firm behavior, competition, innovation, or government regulation. Successful candidates must demonstrate substantial promise for a scholarly career.

Completed applications containing a curriculum vitae, sample of research, statement of teaching, and three letters of recommendation should be uploaded electronically via UC Irvine’s online application system, RECRUIT, located at: https://recruit.ap.uci.edu/JPF05710.
