The Williams College Economics Department invites applications for a tenure-track appointment beginning July 1, 2017. Our primary area of interest is macroeconomics. We are especially interested in candidates with expertise in open-economy macro and those whose work relates to emerging market or developing economies. Applicants with excellent research and teaching promise in other fields will also be considered. Additionally, we seek candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community through their scholarship, teaching and/or service; and we especially encourage applications from members of historically underrepresented groups in the field. Candidates should have a Ph.D, or all requirements for the Ph.D. degree, completed by September 2017.
We are a department of active scholars and currently have 25 tenured or tenure-track faculty members. In addition to our undergraduate program, we operate and staff the Center for Development Economics (http://cde.williams.edu/), which offers an MA in Policy Economics.
The deadline for application and supporting materials is November 18, 2016. All materials should be addressed to Professor Kenneth N. Kuttner, Chair, Department of Economics, and submitted through Interfolio at https://apply.interfolio.com/36727. Email, fax, or paper applications cannot be accepted. Applicants should submit a cover letter, their curriculum vitae, professional papers, and teaching evaluations, and ensure that three letters of reference are submitted on their behalf.
