Description: Queen's University Faculty of Law Appointments April 2008

Queen's University Faculty of Law invites applications for up to three tenure-track or tenured appointments, at the Assistant, Associate or Full Professor level, to begin July 1, 2009.

For junior scholars, the Faculty is also seeking applications for the position of Visiting Assistant Professor, a non-renewable two-year full-time academic appointment that includes a full range of teaching, research and administrative obligations. We expect to appoint at least one Visiting Assistant Professor to begin July 1, 2009. An applicant for a position as a Visiting Assistant Professor may also apply and be considered for a tenure-track appointment.

The Faculty is seeking candidates who will contribute actively to the life of the academic community at Queen's and beyond. The main criterion is academic excellence, or a demonstrated potential for excellence, as reflected in the candidate’s scholarly and teaching record. Applicants must have completed, or be close to completing, graduate studies in law or a related field. The Faculty welcomes applicants from all areas of legal study and is particularly interested in applicants with expertise in Business Law, Tax Law, International Economic Law, Intellectual Property Law, Labour Law, Civil Procedure, Commercial Law, and Private Law.

Queen’s Law is one of Canada’s leading law schools, with a distinguished record of outstanding teaching and research. Located in historic Kingston, Ontario, Queen’s is a mid-sized law school with a proud history of a high degree of faculty and student engagement. Queen’s Law has a curriculum and research profile that is global in scope, including Canada’s only law school study-abroad international law program, offered each spring at the Queen’s International Study Centre at Herstmonceux Castle in the UK.

The University invites applications from all qualified individuals. Queen’s is committed to employment equity and diversity in the workplace and welcomes applications from women, visible minorities, aboriginal people, persons with disabilities, and persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity. All candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadian citizens and permanent residents will be given priority.

Each application must include a curriculum vitae, copies of all university transcripts, copies of sample publications, a brief statement of current and prospective research interests, and a statement of teaching experience or potential, including any available course outlines and evaluations. Electronic applications are strongly preferred. Applicants should also supply information concerning any interruptions in their academic career. It is the responsibility of the applicants to have letters from at least three referees sent directly to the address below. Electronic .pdf letters of reference are also strongly preferred. Writing samples will not be returned, and incomplete applications may not be considered.

Applications may be submitted between June 1, 2008 and September 1, 2008. However, if letters from referees are not available by September 1, 2008, they should be submitted as soon thereafter as is possible. The Committee may also still consider applications received after September 1, 2008.
