The Department of Political Studies and Public Administration (PSPA) at the American University of Beirut (AUB) is accepting applications for a full-time faculty position at the rank of assistant professor in the field of Public Administration to begin August 15, 2016. This is in addition to a position we previously advertised.

We welcome qualified applicants who possess a PhD in Public Administration, Public Management, or a closely related field (Public Affairs, Civil Society, Public Policy, Political Science, Urban Studies, Sociology, or Anthropology). Teaching of undergraduate and graduate courses is expected in the fields of public administration, public management, and non-profit organization and civic engagement. An excellent research and teaching record is also desirable. Research agendas relevant to the Middle East and Lebanon are a plus. As AUB is a culturally diverse institution, candidates must also possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills and be prepared to contribute to the mentoring of MA thesis projects.

Review of applications will begin on February 1, 2016, and will continue until the position is filled.

To apply, please send a letter of intent that describes qualifications, research agenda, and teaching interests, a C.V., a writing sample, evidence of teaching effectiveness (if available), and three letters of reference to:
