I would also be happy to answer any questions people might have about the position. Our initial deadline is 25 October, but we will consider applications after that date. Thank you. ---------------------------------- The Department of Political Science invites applications for the position of advanced Assistant or Associate Professor of Political Science with interests in the politics of energy, to begin in Fall 2011.
