Assistant or Associate Professor in Strategic Studies / International Relations (Tenure-Track/Tenured) 

The S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS) at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, is seeking to appoint Assistant or Associate Professor in Strategic Studies (2 positions) and Assistant or Associate Professor in International Relations (1 position). Applications are welcome from both early career and established scholars. We are open regarding specific areas of research and teaching specialisation.

A relevant PhD and a good publication record commensurate with the level of appointment are essential requirements. Candidates must submit evidence of demonstrated excellence in teaching. If successful, the candidate will teach up to 3 courses per year, including one core course for either the MSc in Strategic Studies (Analysis of Defence and Security Policies or  Evolution of Strategic Thought) or MSc in International Relations (Study of International Relations) programme depending on their specialisation. 

All applicants should submit the following:

1.     A cover letter specifying how your qualifications match the job description;
