Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

The University of Missouri is launching an ambitious multi-year hiring initiative, Mizzou Forward, that is intended to attract high profile scholars with a record of significant external funding. The Department of Economics also has two endowed chair positions available for exceptional candidates. This is an executive style search that is managed centrally by the University; applications may be submitted at any time. For more information, see: https://provost.missouri.edu/mizzou-forward/.

The Department of Economics at Mizzou is an innovative program that has been recognized by the AEA with its inaugural Award for Achievements in Diversity and Inclusion. Our faculty rank in the top third of AAU Public Universities for research productivity (Academic Analytics); and our majors are increasing rapidly. We seek enthusiastic and engaged colleagues who embrace our mission of excellence in research, teaching, and public service.

Mizzou is the flagship campus of the University of Missouri system, located in Columbia, just 20 minutes to the Columbia Regional Airport, and less than 2 hours to St. Louis or Kansas City. Columbia is consistently rated as one of the best communities to live and home prices are so low, you’ll think they are quoted in another currency.
