This is a rare opportunity to shape a dynamic academic division at a pivotal moment in the university’s evolution. The Dean will lead a vibrant community of scholars who advance foundational and applied research on some of the most pressing issues of our time - ranging from inequality, governance, and social change - within a highly international and interdisciplinary environment.
The Division
The Social Science Division is home to over 80 full-time faculty, including a Nobel Laureate in Economics and a vibrant community of post-doctoral researchers in Economics, Political Science, Social Research & Public Policy, Business Organizations & Society, and Legal Studies. The Division offers five undergraduate majors as well as graduate programs. Faculty conduct world-class research that is both theoretically rigorous and globally engaged, with collaborations spanning every continent and close ties to policy and practice in the UAE and beyond. The Division’s research strength is internationally recognized - Economics at NYUAD ranks 4th in Asia in Research Papers in Economics, and Political Science ranks 6th globally according to a recent study. Its faculty regularly publish in leading disciplinary and interdisciplinary journals.
The Dean will have a unique opportunity to capitalize on this momentum: building on the Division’s existing strengths in graduate education, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the global and local visibility of its research and teaching.
About NYU Abu Dhabi
Founded in partnership with New York University and the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, NYUAD is an extraordinary achievement in global higher education. Since opening in 2010, it has become one of the most selective universities in the world with a 2025 admit rate of 2.7 percent, enrolling students from over 120 countries, NYU Abu Dhabi has produced 24 Rhodes Scholars.

They are drawn from leading institutions worldwide. NYUAD’s research and teaching are deeply integrated with NYU’s global network, offering opportunities for collaboration and mobility across New York and Shanghai.
The Role
The Dean reports to the Provost and serves as a key member of NYUAD’s senior leadership team. As the Division’s chief academic officer, the Dean will provide strategic leadership for its faculty, curricula, and research agenda, championing excellence and innovation in both research and pedagogy. The role also carries significant responsibility for fostering an accessible and collaborative academic community and for representing the Division’s strengths to partners within and beyond NYU.
As part of the senior administration, the Dean must work effectively and collegially with other deans as well as academic and administrative leaders. In addition to engaging with members of the Division of Social Science, they must also be able to work with faculty across the institution. The Dean must be committed to two-way communication, to fostering trust, and to building community at the campus, national, and international levels.
Specifically, the Dean will be a catalyst in addressing the following key challenges and opportunities for the Division:

Ultimately, it aims to equip policymakers, particularly central banks, with empirically grounded evidence to support macroeconomic and financial stability throughout the transition to a low-carbon economy.

The ideal candidate should hold or be near completion of a Ph.D. This position is embedded in the Department of Economics and the institute of Development, Finance and Public Policies (DeFiPP) an institute with over 30 active scholars in economics, finance, and macroeconomics.
JOB
• Build a DSGE model that combines climate-related factors with imperfect rationality mechanism
• Analyze the transmission channels through which climate risks influence inflation and macroeconomic volatility, with a focus on the role of imperfectly rational beliefs.
• Simulate alternative policy scenarios to identify effective strategies for managing climate-driven inflation volatility
• Contribute to project publications and joint research activities
• Engage in internal workshops and conferences
• Interact with PhD students and faculty within the project team
PROFILE
• PhD in economics or related field, with specialization in macroeconomic modeling
• Strong command of DSGE modeling and interest in expectation formation, learning, and climate economics

OFFER
• A 1-year full-time postdoctoral contract, with the possibility of extension depending on the availability of project funding
• Competitive salary compared to other European academic institutions. The monthly net salary around 3280 €
• Possibility of co-authored publications within the project and opportunities for
international collaboration
• Stimulating and supportive research environment, with opportunities to collaborate with researchers at the National Bank of Belgium and to attend high-level macroeconomic seminars, workshops, and conferences organized by the central bank, providing valuable exposure to cutting-edge research and policy debates.

Position Introduction
We are seeking multiple highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to join an interdisciplinary research team engaged in a close collaboration with a leading global ride-hailing platform. This ambitious project aims to advance our understanding of digital marketplace design by studying the interactions between customers and drivers, as well as the platform’s operational and strategic choices.
A defining strength of this collaboration is access to exceptionally rich, high-resolution proprietary data from the platform. This unique dataset supports rigorous empirical analysis and enables high-fidelity modeling and simulation of marketplace dynamics at scale. Research topics span a broad set of questions, including how pricing strategies, incentive structures, dispatch algorithms, and service quality shape the behavior and outcomes of customers, drivers, and the platform itself.
We welcome applicants with strong backgrounds in causal inference, structural estimation, advanced machine learning, and simulation. We are especially interested in scholars eager to apply cutting-edge methods to real- world data to uncover insights that are both academically rigorous and practically actionable. The overarching goal is to inform the design of smarter, more equitable, and more efficient platform ecosystems.
The position will be formally affiliated with the School of Management and Economics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen). The postdocs will be supervised by Prof. Yiming Zhang of CUHK-Shenzhen. The research team includes the following faculty from other institutions: Prof. Qiuping Yu (Georgetown), Prof. Yong-Pin Zhou(University of Washington), and Prof. Yunan Ji (Georgetown).
Since 2018, our research team has maintained a close collaboration with this ride-hailing platform. Our prior work has focused on the design and optimization of virtual queuing systems, combining large-scale randomized field experiments with structural modeling to generate actionable insights. Research from this partnership has been published in Management Science and received multiple awards, including the MSOM Service Management SIG Best Paper Award, INFORMS Service Science Best Paper Award, and the CSAMSE Best Practice Award. Notably, our recommended strategies were adopted platform-wide and led to an 80% improvement in customer experience.
Job Position: Post Doc Fellows.
Duration: Two years.
Location: Beijing (on-site at the collaborating company)
Start Date: As early as is mutually agreeable. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.
The annual salary for this position ranges from RMB 470,000 to 580,000 (approximately USD 66,000 to 80,000), commensurate with the candidate’s experience and accomplishments. Employee benefits will be provided according to the relevant labor laws of Mainland China as well as CUHK-Shenzhen regulations.
Interested applicants should submit:
Applications and inquiries should be sent to Dr. Yiming Zhang at zhangyiming@cuhk.edu.cn.Please include“PostdocApplication–[Your Name]” in the email subject line. Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until positions are filled.
