The Keough School of Global Affairs at the University of Notre Dame seeks applicants for a tenure track/tenured position in development economics at the assistant, associate or full professor level. Candidates who have demonstrated excellence in both research and teaching will be considered for this position. Compensation is competitive.

The Keough School (http://keough.nd.edu) is the first new school at Notre Dame in nearly a century. The School promotes interdisciplinary research on critical issues in global affairs, offers a master’s degree, a supplemental undergraduate major and supports doctoral programs. Successful hires are expected to teach both undergraduate and masters students.

All applicants should submit a cover letter and a curriculum vitae to the online service at http://www.aeaweb.org/joe. Assistant professor applicants should also include one or more research papers, evidence of teaching success, and three letters of recommendation.

The University is an Equal Opportunity and affirmative action employer with a strong commitment to fostering a culturally diverse atmosphere for faculty, staff and students. We strongly encourage applications from women, minorities, and those attracted to a university with a Catholic identity. The University also considers all qualified applicants for employment without regard to status as a protected veteran or individual with a disability. The University of Notre Dame supports the needs of dual career couples and has a Dual Career Assistance Program in place to assist relocating spouses and significant others with their job search.

Should an application result in an appointment, the appointment would be contingent upon the successful completion of a background check. Applicants will be asked to identify all felony convictions and/or pending felony charges. Felony convictions do not automatically bar an individual from employment. Each case will be examined separately to determine the appropriateness of employment in the particular position. Failure to be forthcoming or dishonesty with respect to felony disclosures can result in the disqualification of a candidate. The full procedure can be viewed at http://facultyhandbook.nd.edu/university-policies/background-check-procedure-for-prospective-faculty/.
