Debra Javeline
Hello friends,
Notre Dame’s Keough School is hiring. I am not on the committee and can’t answer specific questions about the position but am happy to talk to you about Notre Dame or South Bend more generally. Please apply – we have been building over the last few years, and the school has more resources than most, so it would be great to see those resources put to your good use.
Best regards,
Debra

Description
The University of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs invites applicants for a full, tenured policy professorship focused in the area of development. The ideal candidate would have a strong research agenda focused on poverty and inequality, preferably linked to climate change and environmental policy in the context of low- and middle-income countries. Areas of particular interest include but are not limited to climate-induced migration, climate adaptation, just energy transitions, climate-resilient agriculture systems, equitable natural resource management, climate financing, and resource mobilization. For an accomplished senior candidate, an endowed chair would be considered.
Competitive candidates for this professorship will have a strong scholarly track record with evidence of high-quality research as well as substantial policy engagement in global and national discussions on development.

The search is open with respect to discipline and may include demography, economics, geography, political science, public policy, sociology or related fields.
The ideal candidate will demonstrate a capacity for cutting-edge research at the nexus of poverty, inequality, climate change, and environmental justice. The successful candidate is expected to provide leadership in the Keough School in these areas across all dimensions of research, teaching, and service.
The professorship will be based in the Keough School (https://keough.nd.edu), which advances integral human development through research, policy and practice, transformative educational programs, and partnerships for global engagement. It promotes interdisciplinary research on critical issues in global affairs.
