Full Text of JOE Listing:

9-month tenure-track position, assistant professor—or, for especially qualified applicants, associate professor—starting Fall 2020. We seek candidates with expertise in any area of political economy, although especially in political economy of development. For candidates with a regional specialization, areas other than Europe and North America are preferred. Successful applicants should be versed in comparative or international political economy and have a strong commitment to policy-relevant research and teaching. This is a 50% research, 40% teaching, 10% service position. The teaching load is, at most, 2-2, with one course release in the first three years. The tenure home will be in the Department of Criminal Justice & Political Science; this position is affiliated with the College of Business’ Challey Institute for Global Innovation & Growth. Successful candidate is expected to conduct research, teaching, and outreach that contributes to the Institute’s mission. Graduate student assistance, course buyouts, and summer research support may also be provided. Successful applicants will be prepared to teach core undergraduate courses in comparative politics, international relations, upper-division classes in political economy, political institutions, and global policy issues, and contribute to programs in public policy, political and economic institutions, and global studies. There are minimal service expectations for pre-tenure faculty.
