Assistant Professor of Economics, Tenure Track

The Department of Economics at St. Lawrence University invites applications for up to two tenure-track positions at the assistant professor level, beginning August 2022. We seek candidates who teach and conduct research in finance/financial economics and are prepared to teach courses in corporate finance, investments, and upper-level finance electives appropriate to the candidate’s expertise. The successful candidates will help launch the University’s new finance major, a rigorous financial economics major taught within a liberal arts context. The typical teaching assignment is 3 courses per semester, usually limited to 2 preparations per semester and 3 for the year.

The Department of Economics consists of 12 members covering a broad range of fields and interests. We are committed to excellence in teaching and scholarship in a diverse liberal arts environment. The University supports faculty members through start-up funds, conference (research and pedagogy) travel funds, internal grants for research as well as support for student research and teaching assistants. Upon the successful completion of a third-year review, faculty are granted a pre-tenure sabbatical and the opportunity to apply for internal, donor-funded research grants.

Applications by members of all underrepresented groups, as well as from individuals with experience teaching or working in a multicultural environment, are encouraged. St. Lawrence University is an Equal Opportunity Employer. (See the diversity statement at: http://www.stlawu.edu/president/statement-diversity.)
