New York University invites applications for a faculty position in Environmental Policy, created as part of an emerging university-wide initiative in Environmental Studies. The successful candidate will have responsibilities in both the NYU Wagner Graduate School of Public Service (tenure home) and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. Applicants must have a doctoral degree in a relevant discipline.

We seek applicants who are enthusiastic about working in a multidisciplinary environment and in an evolving NYU environmental studies community that spans the human and natural sciences. Candidates should have strong research interests and capacity in one or more substantive areas of relevance for Environmental Studies, including political science, public policy, economics, environmental science, urban planning, law, geography, and sociology. The new faculty member will play a leadership role in Environmental Studies research, teaching (including core courses), and program development.

The Environmental Studies Program is part of a new, university-wide initiative launched in September 2006. An interdisciplinary undergraduate major in Environmental Studies is currently in place; a graduate-level program is planned as well. We anticipate several additional appointments as part of this initiative.

The Wagner School, which was established in 1938, offers both masters and doctoral degrees. The School’s nearly 40 full-time faculty members are trained in a wide variety of disciplines, but share a commitment to addressing issues of public importance in their teaching and research.

Applications will be reviewed upon receipt, beginning October 31, 2008, and continuing until the position is filled. Applicants should send a cover letter and curriculum vitae via email to: environmentalsearch.wagner@nyu.edu.

In addition, please have three references send letters of recommendation to:

NYU Wagner Graduate School of Public Service
The Puck Building, 2nd floor
