The Julis-Rabinowitz Center for Public Policy and Finance (JRCPPF) at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs invites applications for a Professional Specialist expected to begin on or before September 1, 2026. The Center's mission is to advance research and education at the intersection of financial markets, global macroeconomics, and public policy. The Center provides a dynamic environment for collaboration among students, faculty, quantitative researchers, financial industry experts, and public-sector practitioners.
The Center is expanding its research and academic offerings at the intersection of AI, quantitative economics, international macrofinance, and economic policy. Professional Specialists will contribute to the research initiatives in AI, international macrofinance, and economic policy (approximately 70%). They will also support the Center’s educational programs (approximately 30%). Working closely with Center directors, the specialists will help develop courses on AI applications for economic policy and financial markets for global professional audiences, design and lead reading groups and non-credit policy clinics for Princeton students, and participate in Center-wide efforts to translate research insights into policy-relevant outputs. There will also be opportunities to pursue your own research program. The initial term of this appointment is for one year, with renewal contingent upon satisfactory performance and continued funding.
