I can tell you that it is a great opportunity.

Greg Hannsgen
Levy Institute

Research Associate and Editor


Job Description:

The Levy Economics Institute of Bard College seeks a new Resident 
Research Associate and Editor. Responsibilities include editing many of 
the Institute's policy-oriented publications and writing and editing the 
/Report/, a quarterly newsletter on Institute research and events.

Requirements

The incumbent may also have an opportunity to engage in independent 
research in his or her own field. A completed Ph.D. in economics is 
required, though candidates who expect to graduate within 6 months will 
be considered. Qualifications include a good command of written English 
and the ability to communicate complex economic ideas to noneconomists. 
Ideally, the candidate would have research interests that complement one 
or more of the institute's projects-including the distribution of income 
and wealth, gender equality and the economy, and macromodeling. 
Demonstrated success in professional writing or editing would be 
helpful. Information on the Levy Institute is available at www.levy.org 
<http://www.levy.org>.

The Levy Economics Institute is located on the campus of Bard College, 
90 miles north of NYC, overlooking the Hudson River. The Institute 
provides state-of-the-art computer networking, a dedicated library, and 
a supportive collegial environment.

To apply, please submit two writing samples, undergraduate and graduate 
transcripts (for prospective and recent graduates), and curriculum 
vitae, and the names of three references to: Human Resources-3406, Bard 
College, PO Box 5000, Annandale On Hudson, NY 12504 5000 or fax to 845
