The Department of Finance and Economics seeks to develop a pool of candidates for postdoctoral scholars (post-doc) positions.

A post-doc is a professional appointment designed to provide recent doctoral degree recipients with an opportunity to gain experiences and skills that will advance their careers. A post-doc works under the supervision and sponsorship of a regular faculty member, who serves as a mentor to the post-doc, and it is expected that the faculty sponsor will provide an orientation and development plan for the post-doc, impart the realities and variety of careers available to the post-doc, and encourage learning opportunities to broaden the post-doc's aspirations and experiences.

The appointment involves substantial and full-time commitment to research, scholarship, teaching, or other professional activities. Eligibility for annual reappointment is contingent upon satisfactory annual performance evaluations during the term period, in addition to continuity of funding and departmental need. For more information, please visit Postdoctoral Scholar Appointments, AA/PPS No. 04.01.24 (7.21).

This posting is for the fall 2024, spring 2025, and summer 2024/2025 semesters. Please note that this posting is not intended to convey that such a need currently exists. Applicants applying for a pool post-doc position will be available to the departmental search committee for consideration in case the need arises.

Positions are subject to availability of funds.

Recently awarded a Ph.D. or equivalent doctorate.

Previous teaching experience is preferred.

The Department of Finance and Economics will accept applications from qualified applicants on a continual basis. Only applications submitted through the Texas State University website will be accepted and considered: https://jobs.hr.txstate.edu/postings/46755
