Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

Krea University is a new liberal arts university located two hours outside Chennai, India. We are in our third year of operations and looking to significantly expand our economics faculty.

We invite applications from economists of all fields, with slight preference for macro, labor, development, and economic history. We welcome applicants of all levels of experience; we expect that experienced applicants will have a track record of teaching and research excellence.

Krea is the institutional home for J-PAL (South Asia), IWWAGE, CDFI, and other research organizations in India. These links provide research opportunities for our faculty, and embeddedness within a vibrant research ecosystem.

Interdisciplinarity or interwoven learning is the core of our pedagogic philosophy. In practice, this means that most your teaching will be in your discipline, but you will have opportunities to collaborate on cross-disciplinary offerings.

Krea University offers a competitive compensation package, which includes housing for all faculty. Faculty receive a research budget and can apply for additional funds from the university. Krea University is an equal opportunity employer, with a commitment to a diverse community.

The deadline for submitting applications is 15 January 2022.
