Assistant Professor of the Economics of Energy and/or Environmental Economics
The Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics seeks an Assistant Professor (tenure track, nine-month appointment) starting July 1, 2008, subject to budgetary approval. Applications are sought from outstanding researchers and teachers with a specialization in energy and/or environmental economics. The department is also especially interested in a candidate with strong empirical (econometric or experimental) skills. In addition to developing a research program in this area, the new assistant professor will participate in the department's teaching program, which typically involves teaching one undergraduate and one graduate course per year in our core courses and possibly one graduate or undergraduate seminar per year. There is a possibility of summer research support. The successful candidate will hold a faculty position in the University of California as well as an appointment in the Agricultural Experiment Station.
Applicants must have a Ph.D. degree in agricultural economics, economics, or other highly related field. Applications must be postmarked by December 1, 2007. Please submit a cover letter (including a statement of future research plans and areas in which you would feel comfortable teaching), a one or two page summary of your research, a curriculum vitae, one or more representative papers or publications (PDF format only for all documents if sent electronically; if sending paper copies through mail, also include papers in PDF format on a CD), plus three letters of recommendation to:
