Political Science Research Methodology

The department of political science invites applications for a tenure-track

problems; who contribute to the literature on political methodology by
appropriately using, developing and extending new statistical techniques; and

Primary teaching responsibilities include advanced graduate courses in
quantitative methodology, as well as undergraduate and graduate courses in the
applicant’s substantive sub-field of interest. Moreover, the individual
selected will have an opportunity to participate in the Department’s new
undergraduate research initiative program. In addition to a strong scholar and
teacher, we are interested in candidates who can serve as a resource to enhance
the research activities of the department’s faculty.

of the Ph.D. is expected. Salary is competitive with salaries at other research
