Full Text of JOE Listing:
The National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies (GRIPS), founded in 1997 as a stand-alone national graduate university focused on policy studies, aims to cultivate public policy leaders and professionals who will play key roles in democratic governance. We are international in our faculty, our student body and our outlook. We are currently seeking candidates for positions to start in Fall 2015 (exact timing is negotiable).
We are interested in scholars who are conducting research in applied economics fields and can teach masters students in our public policy programs and Ph.D. students in economics. While we welcome candidates from any relevant field we are particular interested in strengthening research in labor and related areas of applied microeconomics. We favor appointing at the full and associate professor level, but we will consider highly-qualified candidates for assistant professor. In all cases, candidates must show record or promise of scholarly productivity and publications in high-quality academic journals. Candidates should have a Ph.D in Economics or one firmly expected by August 2015.
Appointees will be required to teach 6 to 8 units (3-4 half courses) per year in English. An appointee is also expected to conduct high level research and to contribute administratively.
