Job Description

The School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA) at the University of Cincinnati (UC) invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the area of environmental public policy and research methodology. While the tenure-home of the position is in SPIA, the successful candidate is expected to teach cross-listed courses in support of the mission of UC’s School of Environment and Sustainability Studies (SEaS). SPIA is seeking to expand its research capacity to leverage broader theories/frameworks of public policy and/or governance, which align with SPIA’s mission to advance research with public impact.

SPIA offers a PhD and MA in Political Science, a Master’s of Public Administration (MPA), as well as three undergraduate BAs (Political Science, International Affairs, and Law and Society). SPIA also houses three centers—the Center for Cyber Strategy and Policy (CCSP), the Portman Center for Policy Solutions (PCPS), and the Center for Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation (CTRHT). SEaS is home to the Environmental Studies BS and BA, as well as two minor tracks. SEaS brings together expertise in the Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities to create a transdisciplinary approach to problem solving in the classroom and in the community.
Essential Functions

The successful candidate will be expected to:

• Apply their research and methodological expertise to an environmental policy-centered research agenda that exhibits potential for external funding. Research in any environmental issue-area or using any methodological approach is welcome.

• Teach primarily, but not exclusively, courses at the undergraduate level. The course load for research active tenure-track faculty is 2-2 (two courses per 2 semesters). All undergraduate courses taught will be cross listed between SPIA and SEaS. Courses might include, but are not limited to, Introduction to Environmental Policy, Environmental Justice, Environmental Science and Politics, and/or Global Environmental Politics. Graduate courses might include Public Policy Research Methods and Environmental Policy.

• Develop their own courses that coincide with their specific area of expertise.

• Perform service activities such as committee membership at the unit level as well as the college, university and at national and international levels with professional organizations, community-engagement, public service, as well as student mentorship and advising.
Minimum Requirements

Prior to the effective date of the appointment, candidates must have a completed PhD (i.e., must have completed all requirements for graduation) in Public Policy, Political Science, or a related field.
