Assistant/Associate Professor of Economics

The University of Chicago Booth School of Business is seeking to appoint outstanding scholars to tenure-track positions in Microeconomics for the 2023-24 academic year.

We invite applications from those who hold a PhD (or equivalent) in the relevant field(s) by July 1 or soon thereafter (we require all tenure track faculty to have a PhD or equivalent). (We will appoint those whose degree requirements have not been satisfied by this date as instructors, the expectation being that all PhD requirements will be satisfied soon thereafter, at which time you will be appointed as an assistant professor.)

Members of our faculty are expected to conduct original research of exceptionally high quality, to teach effectively, and to participate in and contribute to the academic environment. 

Each candidate should submit a curriculum vitae, a sample of written work, and the names of at least two scholars qualified and willing to evaluate the candidate’s ability, training, and potential for research and teaching.

We will continue to accept applications until April 22, 2023.

All University departments and institutes are charged with building a faculty from a diversity of backgrounds and with diverse viewpoints; with cultivating an inclusive community that values freedom of expression; and with welcoming and supporting all their members.

We seek a diverse pool of applicants who wish to join an academic community that places the highest value on rigorous inquiry and encourages diverse perspectives, experiences, groups of individuals, and ideas to inform and stimulate intellectual challenge, engagement, and exchange. The University’s Statements on Diversity are at https://provost.uchicago.edu/statements-diversity .
