Applications are invited for one or more fully funded PhD scholarships at the Department of Economics, University of Southern Denmark, Odense.

Depending on academic qualifications, applicants may be enrolled in either the 4+4 or the 5+3 PhD programme. Both programmes include a research stay abroad, typically of six months’ duration, and offer a competitive full-time salary.

We aim to appoint the successful candidate as soon as possible, ideally with a start date of 15 January 2027, while remaining flexible regarding the exact timing.

About the Department and Research Environment

The Department of Economics is an international department with a strong tradition of excellence in research and teaching across a wide range of fields within economics. Research, teaching, and outreach activities are organized within four research groups: Econometrics and Data Science; Economic History; Macroeconomics; and Microeconomics. Further information about the department and its research groups is available on the department website.

The PhD student will be affiliated with the Historical Economics and Development Group (HEDG), which focuses on Economic History with a strong emphasis on applied microeconomics and causal inference. HEDG is internationally acknowledged as a leading research group and attracts substantial grants and media coverage, as well as publishing books and articles with top outlets.

The position

The successful candidate will become part of an international research environment and work closely with Associate Professor Anthony Wray on Private Foundations, a Carlsberg Foundation-funded project on the roles of private investment and medical education in shaping innovation and inequality in the United States during the early twentieth century. For further information about the project, please see this link.

These are applied microeconomic questions in health, labour, education, and demographic economics, approached with historical data. We are interested in strong applied microeconomists broadly, not only in candidates who already identify as economic historians, and there is scope for the PhD student to develop their own questions within the project.

The successful candidate is expected to contribute to high-quality research within the scope of the project, including independent, single-authored work. In addition, the candidate will be involved in teaching and supervision within economics at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

The PhD student will be supervised by Associate Professor Anthony Wray and will join a research group that includes two postdoctoral researchers and scientific research assistants, with access to an international network of collaborators.

The project has its own GPU environment — university hardware, reserved for this project and its research team. It runs open-weight models locally for large-scale digitisation and data extraction from historical sources, alongside frontier models. We are also building an autonomous workflow for agentic-supported academic research, and the PhD student will have the chance to help develop that workflow.

Applicants’ profile

Applicants should have completed a relevant master’s degree in Economics, Mathematics and Economics, or related disciplines. Qualified candidates currently enrolled in a relevant master’s programme are also welcome to apply. Furthermore, we expect applicants to:

  • Have solid knowledge of econometrics and applied quantitative methods, with experience using Python, R, Stata, or similar tools, and be eager to learn and apply new methods.
  • Be dedicated, capable of working independently and in cooperation with a PhD supervisor.
  • Have strong English skills, both spoken and written.
  • Have good interpersonal skills, be interested in engaging with national and international researchers.

The Graduate School of International Studies (l’École supérieure d’études internationales – ESEI) at Université Laval, located in Québec City, Canada, is a centre of excellence in multidisciplinary research and teaching on international issues.

ESEI is currently seeking a faculty member whose research focuses on global inequalities and trade. The successful candidate will hold the Research Chair in Global Inequalities and Trade.

The competition is open to candidates from all disciplines relevant to this field. Applications from economics, law, geography, history, sociology, management, political science, and other relevant disciplines are particularly encouraged.

International trade structures power relations among developed countries, emerging economies, and least developed countries, as well as power dynamics among actors within societies. It has a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of millions of people and on their aspirations for a more equitable world. The Chair’s research will examine the reciprocal relationships between the governance of international economic and diplomatic relations, on the one hand, and inequalities, on the other, in the context of the reconfiguration of the emerging world order.

The Chair’s research may address, but is not limited to, the following issues: the role of financial institutions in addressing global economic inequalities (e.g., sovereign debt restructuring); the links between international aid, export-led growth, and human development; the role of sovereign wealth funds and the financialization of the economy in the unequal distribution of wealth and democratic backsliding; the impact of market opening and multinational corporations on local populations; and the preservation of an inclusive multilateral trading system.

In addition to its research activities, the Chair will develop an innovative teaching program based on simulations of negotiations and coordinated action within international organizations working in the fields of international development and trade (IMF, UNDP, WTO, etc.). These initiatives will raise students’ awareness of the importance of multilateral cooperation in reducing inequalities among countries.

A research advisor will support the Chairholder in developing, planning, and submitting research grant applications, while helping to maximize the Chair’s outreach and knowledge mobilization activities. Funding will also be available to support doctoral scholarships associated with the Chair.

The successful candidate will join the Graduate School of International Studies as a regular faculty member beginning June 1, 2027, and no later than September 1, 2027. The appointment may be made at any academic rank, in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and the Syndicat des professeurs et professeures de l’Université Laval (SPUL).

Duties include :

• Teaching at the graduate level;

• Supervising graduate students in the context of master’s research papers, master’s theses, and doctoral dissertations;

• Conducting research and publishing on global inequalities and trade;

• Participating in teaching and administrative activities associated with ESEI;

• Performing any other activities provided for under the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and SPUL.

Selection Criteria :

• Ability to teach in French within three years of appointment;

• A PhD in a field relevant to global inequalities and trade;

• Applications from doctoral candidates who are nearing completion of their dissertation will be considered, provided that a letter from the department chair confirming the expected date of dissertation submission or defence is included;

• A strong commitment to multi/interdisciplinary research and teaching, demonstrated through academic training, a research program, teaching experience, or collaborations;

• An excellent research record, including publications in peer-reviewed journals considered among the leading journals in the candidate’s field, or demonstrated potential to develop an excellent research record for candidates at an early career stage;

• University-level teaching experience;

• A record of securing research funding from granting agencies in the candidate’s field, or demonstrated potential to obtain such funding in the near future;

• Ability to teach a graduate-level research methods course. Proficiency in mixed methods would be an asset;

• Demonstrated involvement in national and international research networks would be an asset;

• Research experience in the Global South would be an asset.

Employment Conditions :

• Regular, full-time position;

• Salary commensurate with recognized experience, with benefits, in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Université Laval and SPUL.

Applications :

• Application deadline: October 31, 2026

• Start date: June 1, 2027 (no later than September 1, 2027)

The application file must include:

A. A cover letter demonstrating, in particular, the candidate’s commitment to multi/interdisciplinary research and international studies;

B. A curriculum vitae;

C. A document of no more than two pages describing a five-year research chair program;

D. One sample of the candidate’s publications.

Associate Professor or DTU Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour - DTU Management

DTU Management is looking for an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Sustainable Travel Behaviour to join our Transportation Science Division.

In this position, you will contribute to research and teaching within travel behaviour and sustainable mobility and become part of an internationally recognized research environment with strong links to policymakers, public authorities, and industry.

The position offers a unique platform to conduct pioneering research in Sustainable Travel Behaviour, connected to DTU’s broader ecosystem of technological knowledge and innovation within the transportation sector.

The Transportation Division is an internationally recognized research environment with strong expertise in transport and mobility. Our interdisciplinary team brings together researchers from fields such as engineering, economics, psychology, data science, computer science, mathematics, and statistics.

We deliver ground-breaking fundamental research as well as research-based insights and tools for policymakers and industry. We collaborate closely with research communities in Denmark and abroad, and with Danish authorities. This includes a large ongoing contract with the Ministry of Transport, under which we provide policy support to solve the great challenges in the transport sector. This includes responsibility for the national travel survey.

Human behaviour and its underlying drivers are embedded throughout our research on transport systems and mobility. Our research creates a foundation for policy support related to key challenges in the sector, such as the green transition, mobility for all user groups, congestion and pressured land use both in large cities and rural settings; equity, safety, and risk; and derived negative externalities of transport.

The overarching focus of the position is understanding human mobility and sustainable travel behaviour when planning transportation systems. This should also be seen in a broader context understanding how urban and rural surroundings influence travel behaviour, and based upon this formulating policies and regulations for more sustainable mobility.

What we offer
We offer an international research environment, with a collegial, team-oriented environment in an elite university based in Greater Copenhagen. We have good opportunities for collaboration, supervision and co-supervision of graduate students and attractive teaching conditions.

Denmark offers abundant funding opportunities for leading edge research from its many private and public research foundations in addition to the EU funding schemes. To support the obtaining of funding, DTU and the department provide highly specialized and individual funding support and guidance depending on your needs and where you are in your career.

Furthermore, Denmark is one of the countries in the world with the highest degree of digitalization, and hence researchers have access to unique longitudinal datasets on households, companies, transport behaviour, land use, etc. DTU has a close collaboration with public authorities, which secures both impacts of research and access to surveys, experimental and register data.

The position is full-time and based at DTU Lyngby campus, just north of Copenhagen. Copenhagen is renowned around the world for its relaxed atmosphere, fantastic restaurants, festivities and high quality of life, being number one on the 2025 Global City quality of life index.

Responsibilities and qualifications
We seek an Associate Professor or Tenure Track Assistant Professor who can advance research and practice on travel behaviour, deepening our understanding of behaviour, preferences, and choices, and their underlying drivers. You have a strong track record in research at an international level.

Over the years, we expect you to develop academic leadership, attract external funding, teach undergraduate and graduate students, strengthen our research-based advice, and contribute to a fruitful environment based on the position. Particular emphasis will be on public sector support, scientific advice, and societal impact on the transport domain.

You will bring the following:

  • A PhD in a relevant topic and discipline related to travel behaviour, e.g. from Transportation Science, Social Data Science, Economics, Psychology, Geography or Urban Planning, with a quantitative evidence-oriented profile
  • Experience of application areas within the transport domain, possibly related to land use, and a strong publications record in these areas
  • Experience with, or a strong interest in, scientific advice and public sector consultancy in the transport domain, along with strong skills in sector collaboration
  • A solid national and international network within and beyond academia
  • An ambition to push boundaries and define future research agendas that address societal challenges

As a candidate, you should have a high potential for creative and independent research, willingness to collaborate and interact with other researchers, the ability to teach courses at different levels, to engage in scientific advice and to disseminate research in seminars, conferences and in the classroom, as well as to the wider public. You will also be responsible for the teaching of student courses.

DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and with time are expected to master both.

As a formal qualification you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent). If you are applying for the associate professor position you should also have academic qualifications equivalent to those obtained by holding an assistant professorship and documented didactic/pedagogic training.

You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:

  • Experience and quality of teaching
  • Research experience
  • Research vision and potential
  • International impact and experience
  • Societal impact
  • Innovativeness, including commercialization and collaboration with industry
  • Leadership, collaboration, and interdisciplinary skills
  • Communication skills

By bringing academic expertise to strategic issues of primary importance to Canada, the Chair seeks to contribute actively to national debates on defence and security.

Research conducted through the Chair may address, among other topics:

  • The economic and geoeconomic dimensions of competition in the Arctic;
  • The costs, choices, and trade-offs associated with defence and security policies in the region;
  • The legal frameworks and governance issues that shape activities in the Arctic, particularly in a region where different and overlapping areas of state jurisdiction coexist;
  • The historical and territorial transformations of the region and their implications for contemporary security issues;
  • Transformations in the strategic environment and power relations in the Arctic;
  • The resilience and security of critical northern infrastructure, particularly land and maritime transportation infrastructure;
  • Maritime security and the evolution of commercial shipping;
  • The development and transportation of natural resources and their strategic implications.

A research advisor will support the Chairholder in developing, planning, and submitting research grant applications, while also helping to maximize the Chair’s outreach and engagement activities. Funding will also be available to offer doctoral scholarships associated with the Chair.

The successful candidate will join the Graduate School of International Studies as a regular faculty member starting June 1, 2027, and no later than September 1, 2027. Hiring may be at any academic rank in accordance with the Collective Agreement between Laval University and the Syndicat des professeurs et des professeures de l’Université Laval (SPUL).

Duties include:

  • Teaching at the graduate level;
  • Supervising master’s essays, dissertations and doctoral theses;
  • Conducting research and publishing on Arctic defence and security;
  • Participating in School-related pedagogical and administrative activities;
  • Being involved in any other activity provided for in the Université Laval-SPUL collective agreement;
  • Selection criteria:
  • Ability to teach in French within three years of appointment.
  • Hold a PhD in a field relevant to Arctic defence and security;
  • Applications from doctoral candidates nearing completion of their PhD will be considered, provided that a letter from the department chair confirms the expected date of submission or defense;
  • Demonstrate strong commitment to pluri-/interdisciplinarity, whether through academic background, research program, teaching experience, or collaborative projects;
  • An excellent research record, with publications in top peer-reviewed journals in the candidate’s field, or strong potential to develop such a record for early-career applicants;

We are pleased to announce an opportunity for joining the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) as a PhD in the Climate and Energy Policy Division, at the Department of Technology, Management and Economics – in short DTU Management.

This PhD position offers you the opportunity to build a strong research profile at the intersection of ESG, climate banking, insurance, and real estate finance. You will investigate how banks and financial markets can help accelerate the transition to a low-carbon energy system while managing climate-related risks. You will become part of DTU's international research environment in the research Section on Energy Markets and Finance (EMF) where you can develop your own research profile, collaborate across disciplines, and engage with relevant stakeholders. The position provides a strong foundation for a career in research in sustainable/climate finance, policymaking, or the financial sector.

The project will investigate how banks adjust their lending strategies following realized climate shocks, with particular emphasis on the interplay between bank lending and insurance payouts. It will also examine how such shocks affect the valuation and risk profile of banks’ loan portfolios by reassessing exposures to affected borrowers and accounting for climate-related damage to collateral.

Eligible candidates will have:

  • A two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree in one of the fields: banking and finance, financial economics, economics, or industrial engineering with sustainability focus;
  • An excellent educational background in econometrics or generally in quantitative methods;
  • An interest in empirical research;
  • Mastery of academic English in writing and speaking;
  • A capacity to produce rigorous research publishable in leading economics journals;
  • Excellent presentation skills.

Besides, the candidates' ability and willingness to collaborate effectively with the project's team will play a role in our assessment.

The position provides support for research and travel expenses, including to conduct research at another institution in Denmark or abroad. An academic exchange with NTNU Trondheim is supported. We are committed to offering the opportunity to conduct independent research. Beyond research, the successful candidate will be expected to participate in community activities such as workshops and seminars.

About Us:

Good Business Lab (GBL) is a research-to-action nonprofit that advances access to high-quality jobs for low-income workers. We believe a truly good job is more than wages - it creates conditions for workers to thrive. Yet too few workers have access to sustained wage growth, supportive workplaces, and real opportunities for advancement. GBL works to change this by expanding pathways into better-fit, higher-opportunity work and improving job quality within large employers. We study worker needs, partner with workers and employers to co-design interventions that serve both individual and business goals, and evaluate impact through causal methods. Across manufacturing, retail, and food service, our work shows that improving job quality also improves firm performance. Globally, we have directly improved outcomes for over 500,000 workers, with indirect reach across an ecosystem impacting nearly 2 million more.

The founders of the Lab are Achyuta Adhvaryu - Professor of Economics and Director of 21st Century India Center at the School of Global Policy and Strategy, UC San Diego (www.achadhvaryu.com), Anant Ahuja - Head of ESG and Sustainability at Shahi Exports Pvt. Ltd., and Anant Nyshadham - Assistant Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the University of Michigan (www.anantnyshadham.com).

Role Summary:

The Research Fellow will join the team of Principal Investigators (PIs) to provide technical leadership across a portfolio of existing research projects (3-4) and support the development of new research projects. The research projects are aligned with GBL’s mission: providing better jobs for workers around the globe through evidence-based interventions and policies focused around firms. The research projects will cover key thematic areas of the GBL portfolio: Gender, Health, Climate, Livelihoods, and Workplace.

The Institute for Economic Analysis (IAE) is a research center within the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), the largest public research institution in Spain. Founded in 1985 and situated in the Barcelona metropolitan area, the IAE is renowned for advancing frontier research in economics. Its team of researchers is dedicated to scientific excellence, employing both theoretical and empirical approaches across a wide spectrum of economic areas. Consistently recognized in international rankings, the IAE stands out as one of Europe’s premier institutions for economic research.

The IAE is also a founding member of the Barcelona School of Economics (BSE), a world-class institution that fosters collaboration among four academic and research units in Barcelona. The BSE has consistently been awarded Severo Ochoa grants since the program was launched by Spain’s State Research Agency. This prestigious recognition is awarded to top research institutions in Spain that demonstrate scientific impact and leadership at the international level. The IAE is engaged in graduate education by directing and contributing to BSE Master’s programs. We are equally dedicated to the IDEA doctoral program at UAB, where we mentor the next generation of scholars, equipping them with the guidance, resources, and support necessary to excel in their academic pursuits.

As a public institution, CSIC periodically opens "Permanent Job Calls," which are the way to achieve a permanent public position at CSIC as a civil servant. You may consult these at CSIC's Virtual Platform. There are 3 levels of permanent positions at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC): Tenured Scientist (Associate Professor level 1), Research Scientist (Associate Professor level 2) and Research Professor.

CSIC typically opens an annual call for permanent positions, but this does not guarantee that the IAE will have an open position / open positions each year. In general, the IAE Board must request positions from CSIC, submitting a list of highly qualified candidates who have expressed a strong interest in joining the institute. Therefore, if you are interested, please contact job.openings@iae.csic.es. For details and the latest updates on current and forthcoming job openings, please visit our website here or here.

As a general rule, candidates should have a European Union citizenship, although there are a few exceptions to this. To apply for a tenured civil servant position, candidates who have completed their Ph.D. thesis abroad must have their doctoral degree homologated or at least received the equivalence in Spain. Equivalence is a simplified procedure that certifies, for academic purposes, that the training completed to obtain a foreign master’s or doctoral degree is comparable to that required in Spain, both in terms of level and in relation to a specific academic area and field. For reference, the process of obtaining the equivalence of a foreign Ph.D. degree can take up several months. Hence, the process should be started before there is a call announcing new positions.

If you need the recognition of equivalence of your doctoral degree, the body responsible for issuing it will be any Spanish public or private university, provided that the university offers a doctoral program comparable to the one for which recognition is sought. Some of the documents to be submitted will require an official translation into Spanish and might require legalization. Within the European Union, the translation of public documents of a Member State is not required when they are accompanied by a standard multilingual form. The legalization must be carried out by the Spanish consular office in the country where the document was issued, except in the case of countries that are signatories of the Hague Convention, where legalization is replaced by the apostille, issued by the competent authorities of the country of origin. Neither legalization nor apostille is required for academic documents issued by EU Member States, signatories to the EEA Agreement or Switzerland.

The Division of Quantitative Analysis of Markets and Organizations (QAMO) in the David Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah seeks candidates for a full-time, career-line faculty (lecturer) position in business economics. A successful candidate will hold a Ph.D. in economics (or a related field) with evidence of teaching undergraduate- and/or graduate-level courses in business economics. Depending on experience, lecturers can hold the rank of instructor, assistant professor, associate professor or professor.

Lecturers are non-tenure-track faculty whose primary responsibility is teaching classes and advising students. Beyond this primary responsibility, all faculty in the David Eccles School of Business should sustain long-term currency and relevancy in their field of teaching; this may appear as scholarly activities and professional engagement within the field. The QAMO Division currently teaches the business core to all David Eccles School of Business students, the electives and core courses for the QAMO undergraduate major, as well as courses in the Eccles Business School’s MBA and PhD programs.

Applicants must have a record of successful teaching relevant to QAMO’s needs. We are especially interested in applicants with a demonstrated commitment to student-centered learning. This is an in-person position based in Salt Lake City, Utah. A strong candidate must be able to develop elective courses for the QAMO major, oversee teaching assistants, and coordinate activities with other instructors.

The David Eccles School of Business is a world-class business school with a rich history of excellence in education and research. The University of Utah has recently announced an intention to form a School of Economics, bringing together faculty from the QAMO Division in the David Eccles School of Business and the Economics Department in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences. The successful candidate will help shape a growing, newly integrated community of economists with opportunities to collaborate across business and social science perspectives and build innovative programs. Salaries and teaching loads are competitive with top economics departments and business schools, and the fringe benefits are excellent.

The QAMO Division is committed to removing barriers for all individuals, including those traditionally encountered by individuals from underrepresented groups; strives to recruit faculty who will further enhance our breadth; and makes every attempt to support their academic, professional, and personal success while they are here.

Applications will be accepted until October 9, 2026 or until position is filled.

Opportunity Insights (OI) at Harvard University is hiring several full-time predoctoral fellows to start in Summer 2027 to work with our research group and under the direction of Raj Chetty, John Friedman, and Nathan Hendren. OI is a nonpartisan research and policy institute focused on improving economic opportunity. Founded in 2018, OI has become a nationally and internationally recognized leader in the science of economic mobility and in the use of large administrative data to understand and address inequality. OI has published seminal work on national trends in upward mobility; racial disparities; the role of neighborhoods, social capital, credit, and higher education in upward mobility; and the use of private-sector data to understand disparate impacts in the recent economic recession and recovery. Much of the team’s ongoing research uses quasi-experimental methods to identify causal effects and test the predictions of economic and sociological models. Examples of current research projects include: long-term impacts of neighborhoods and place-based policies, the role of colleges and workforce training in upward mobility, and measuring how social networks affect mobility. OI’s work has shaped policy discussions at the national and local level, with nearly a dozen of its studies covered on the front pages of major media outlets, such as the New York Times, The Economist, The Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal, and have been widely cited in policy discussions.

Fellows will be based at Harvard University or Brown University under the direction of Professors Chetty, Friedman, and Hendren. The fellowship will include a variety of tasks that provide preparation for graduate school or other industry research positions, such as analyzing data, developing statistical models, creating presentations, and editing research papers. In addition to working with OI faculty, predoctoral fellows frequently co-author papers with other students or faculty members. Fellows will interact regularly with professors and their collaborators – such as Stefanie DeLuca, Benny Goldman, Matthew Jackson, Larry Katz, Theresa Kuchler, Michael Stepner, and Johannes Stroebel – in a team-oriented lab environment, with regular lab meetings, seminars, and other events. Fellows also have the opportunity to support our research translation and policy work through such resources as the Opportunity Atlas, the Social Capital Atlas, and the Economic Tracker.

Fellows are invited to participate in broader activities at Harvard and Brown, including seminars and courses. The program serves as an ideal bridge between college and graduate school for students interested in empirical economics. Most previous fellows have gone on to top Ph.D. programs. Salary and benefits are competitive with other top predoctoral fellowships.

As an organization focused on economic mobility, we welcome applications from persons with varied backgrounds and perspectives. Even if applicants are uncertain whether their technical research skill or subject-matter knowledge will be competitive, we strongly encourage applications. Applicants should have completed a bachelor’s degree (or be on track to complete by July 2027) or master’s degree, have strong quantitative skills, and experience with empirical research methods. Candidates with research experience are strongly preferred, especially those with programming experience in Stata, SAS, R, and/or Python. Candidates need not be Economics majors, though they should have a strong interest in and some experience with Economics. Successful candidates have come from a variety of backgrounds (including from undergraduate and graduate programs, industry jobs, and other research assistant positions), and have a range of skill levels and experience with coding.

Fellowships will begin around July 1, 2027. Fellows typically work at OI full-time for two years before starting graduate school in Economics or another social science or pursuing other related career paths.

Note: Persons may only apply once during the 2026-2027 academic year. If you apply during the Fall 2026 hiring session and are not selected, you will not be eligible to reapply until the 2027-2028 Academic Year (i.e., Fall 2027 or Spring 2028 hiring rounds).

COMMITMENT TO NON-DISCRIMINATION

Harvard University is committed to equal opportunity and non-discrimination. We seek talent from all parts of society and the world, and we strive to ensure everyone at Harvard thrives. Our differences help our community advance Harvard’s academic purposes.

Université PSL is launching a call for applications for a Junior Professor Chair in Economics, titled "Economics, Information, Data, AI", based at the LEDa research center, Université Paris Dauphine-PSL, Paris, France.

This is a tenure track position with a reduced teaching load leading to a full professor position at LEDa, Université Paris Dauphine-PSL. The position may start at a mutually agreed date between March 2027 and December 2027.

The position is open to all researchers wishing to develop their work in economics, with a focus on information, data, and AI. This work may be theoretical, or empirical in areas where the scarcity of traditional economic data makes innovative data construction particularly valuable (developing countries, history, experimentation, etc.). The position includes internationally competitive salary and start-up package.

Location: Université Paris Dauphine, Paris, France

Start Date: A mutually agreed date between March and December 2027.

Financial Support

Salary: The annual salary will be equivalent to a Professor (Second class) position (between €40,000 and €45,000 gross per year, depending on experience) during the tenure-track period. This salary is slightly negotiable depending on the candidate's initial experience.

Associated funding : The Junior Professor Chair will receive a € 200,000 startup package during the tenure-track period, including wages for one PhD student and one postdoctoral researcher (for two years), and equipment and operating expenses.

Duration of the chair contract: Between 4-year and 5-year tenure-track phase depending on the recruited candidate profile, followed by permanent professorship after evaluation by a dedicated committee. The tenure-track period may be extended by one additional year by decision of the evaluation committee.

Teaching may be conducted in French or in English. Yet to be tenured, the Junior Professor must be able to teach in French for at least part of their course load. Communication with administration at Université Paris Dauphine-PSL is conducted in French.

Requirements to apply

Candidates must hold a PhD degree in economics and have a research record including publications in fields relevant to the job profile and in top-ranking journals. They must be fluent in English. A post-doctoral position outside France is a strong asset.

Research Project

The successful candidate should be committed to a state-of-the-art research program focusing on economics in the fields of information, data, and AI. It may be theoretical, or empirical in fields where the scarcity of traditional economic data makes innovative data construction particularly valuable (developing countries, history, experimentation, etc.).

The project may tackle production, circulation, or processing of information and its role in individual or collective behaviors and trajectories. The project can also rely on theoretical and/or applied microeconomics approaches, especially in information economics, game theory, mechanism design, and matching. It may include laboratory or field experiments, or the production and analysis of innovative observational data (geospatial data, data from natural language processing or remote sensing, etc.). Special attention will be given to the intersection of applied economics, AI, and the analysis of economic decisions and policies.

Teaching Project

The Junior Professor will contribute to undergraduate economics courses. Depending on their specialization, they may also teach in development economics, data science, and information economics at the master’s and PhD levels. They will help develop innovative modules at the intersection of economics, data, and AI, with a focus on quantitative methods, information analysis and production, and their links with economic development challenges.

The Junior Professor will teach in PSL and Université Paris Dauphine-PSL programs, particularly in the Master in Quantitative Economics and in the Master in International Affairs and Development, as well as in programs related to development, data science, and AI. Teaching will emphasize the use of innovative data, empirical and experimental methods, and AI tools for economic analysis and public policy evaluation.

The appointment fits within the consolidation and further development of expertise in international economics within the Department of Economics.
The candidate will be embedded in the research area International Economics, which focuses on the analysis of international economic integration, with particular attention to trade, investment, and migration, and their implications for growth, inequality, and policy.

At that moment the time devoted to research, education and institutional and societal engagement may be altered.

The recruitment is from 1 February 2027.

OUR OFFER

Ghent University has developed a new inspiring career model for professors. Academic freedom and academics' responsibility, talents and ambitions act as a natural drive to advance their careers, as part of teamwork.

Ghent University is specifically committed to guiding international professors in the process of coming to Ghent. At Ghent University, our view is as broad as possible, because internationalisation creates synergies within and outside the institution.

We offer you a wide range of employee benefits. The basic teacher training and courses in 'Dutch' and 'English' for foreign-speaking lecturers are just a few of our wide range of courses and training.

Candidates who are newly appointed at Ghent University with an appointment of at least 50% receive a Starting Grant of € 240,000 to contribute towards the personnel, operating and/or equipment costs. Furthermore, professors who meet the conditions may be eligible for Basic Research Funding.

DIVERSITY

Ghent University pursues an equal opportunities policy and values everyone's talent, regardless of gender, age, philosophy of life, skin color, sexual orientation, migration background or disability. We encourage everyone to apply.

Ghent University strives for a gender balance, whereby a maximum of three-fifths of the doctoral members of the academic staff are of the same sex. As long as this target has not been met at the level of the scientific group, priority will be given to candidates of the under-represented sex for senior academic staff mandates with mainly research assignments in the event of equal qualifications. This precedence is not automatic and unconditional; the personal situation of each candidate is always taken into account when assessing the applications.

Interruptions in research careers and/or atypical career paths (e.g. relevant experience outside the academic sector) will be taken into account when assessing the application.

SELECTION PROCEDURE

The selection committee will carry out an initial, substantive screening of the admissible applications on the file. This assessment takes into consideration both the candidate's merits and potential.

Ghent University emphasizes the qualitative assessment of academic performance. Therefore, candidates are asked in the application form to mention their most important academic or non-academic achievements with the most impact.

For shortlisted candidates, the following steps in the selection procedure shall consist of at least:

- a selection interview in which the vision and planning regarding education, research, and institutional and societal engagement as well as the embedding in the bigger picture are discussed

- a trial lesson on a subject in the relevant field

- a screening of leadership
