Associate professor

The Department of Economics at the University of Bergen, Norway, is seeking a tenure-track (7 years) position at the Associate Professor level. The candidate will be evaluated for a tenured position as a Full Professor normally towards the end of the period, but there is also a possibility for early evaluation after three years. Internal evaluation guidelines can be found here.

The Department of Economics (www.uib.no/econ) offers bachelor, master and PhD degrees in economics. Research and teaching at the Department cover a broad spectrum of sub-disciplines. The Department is one of the seven departments at the Faculty of Social Sciences.

Work tasks/research field:

We are looking for an excellent economist with a PhD from the last five years.

We can offer:

Further increases in salary depend on individual merit and seniority. A higher starting salary may be considered for a particularly well qualified applicant.
• Enrolment in the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund
