Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Amsterdam School of Economics invites applicants for two tenure track positions in Microeconomics to start in September 2015.

Candidates are expected to equally contribute to research and teaching. Teaching will be at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels, ranging from first-year tutorials to supervising MSc theses and possibly PhD courses. A substantial part of the teaching at all levels is in English; non-Dutch speakers are not required to teach in Dutch. Research is expected to be aimed at international top journals.

All candidates with a strong background in micro-economics will be considered; we particularly encourage applications from candidates with a specialization in empirical industrial organization, behavioral economics and public economics. Candidates should have or be close to completing a PhD in Economics. They will be evaluated on their potential for and/or record of excellence in research and teaching.

Interviews will be conducted at the ASSA-AEA meetings in Boston, MA, January 2015. Candidates that cannot attend these meetings are also invited to apply. Shortlisted candidates will be asked to present one of their papers at a job seminar.
