FACULTY OF LAW

UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK

Over the next few years, the Faculty of Law anticipates having several tenure stream positions to replace retiring faculty. We currently invite applications for up to one tenure stream appointment and one one-year term position, both at the Assistant Professor level and both to take effect on 1 July 2011.  All positions are subject to budgetary approval.

The Faculty welcomes applications from outstanding scholars of diverse perspectives and will consider an appointment in any field of expertise.  Candidates will have a strong academic record and will have or will be completing a graduate degree(s) in law or a related discipline.  They will have a record of or potential for excellence in teaching and research.

UNB’s Faculty of Law is a collegial community with a deep commitment to its 250 students.  We pride ourselves on having one of the most structured LL.B. programs in Canada.  All faculty members contribute to and are committed to sustaining our core curriculum which includes compulsory courses in all three years.  Additional information that may be of interest to prospective faculty members can be found at law.unb.ca.

The Faculty’s offices, teaching facilities and the Gérard V. La Forest Law Library are located together in an attractive setting in Ludlow Hall.  The Hon. G.V. La Forest is distinguished scholar in residence.  Founded in 1892, the Faculty is home to the UNB Law Journal/Revue de droit de l’U N-B.  The Faculty is situated in the capital city of New Brunswick and offers many opportunities for collaborative work both inside and outside the University. 
 
 Applications will be assessed beginning April 8, 2011, although later applications may be considered.  A full application includes a curriculum vitae, transcripts of university study, a brief statement of research interests and teaching experience or potential, representative sample(s) of research work, and names, postal and e-mail addresses and telephone numbers of three referees sent to
