The Economics Department at UMass Boston is a vibrant and diverse group with an established history of methodological and theoretical pluralism with particular focus on issues related to poverty, inequality, gender, and race.

Evidence of successful teaching with diverse students, including international students, is highly desirable. The appointment requires completion of the doctoral degree in Economics or a closely related discipline no later than August 31, 2026.
The review of applications will begin on November 15, 2026. We anticipate preliminary interviews to be conducted remotely immediately preceding the ASSA meeting.

UMass Boston is an urban public research university with a teaching soul, whose impact is both local and global. We are the third most diverse university in the country - more than 60% of our undergraduate students come from minoritized communities and groups and more than half of our students are the first in their families to attend a college or university. Thus, our students come to us from richly diverse life experiences and backgrounds; they bring to our classrooms and research settings the robust range of perspectives growing out of the socio-cultural, economic, and historical contexts in which they have lived, along with the challenges they encounter, engage, and strive to overcome. We invite applications from candidates who engage the diverse life experiences of our student body, who appreciate that students bring their holistic selves into the academic setting, and who recognize and articulate how their own life experiences and backgrounds have shaped their journeys, practices, and commitments as researchers, scholars, and educators.
UMass Boston is committed to the full inclusion of all qualified individuals. As part of this commitment, we will ensure that persons with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodations for the hiring process. If reasonable accommodation is needed, please contact HRDirect@umb.edu or 617-287-5150.
