[Enid Arvidson]

Dear Colleagues:

Since urban economists do policy, I am hoping we might generate some 
applicants from URPE. Please also bring this job announcement to the 
attention of any interested colleagues or students.

Thanks.

The School of Urban and Public Affairs at the University of Texas at 
Arlington invites  applications for a tenure or tenure track faculty 
position at any level, with appointment effective September 2007.  
Appointment at the Associate or Full Professor level requires completed 
doctoral degree and appropriate experience; appointment at the 
Assistant Professor level requires doctoral degree completed by time of 
appointment or ABD.  Applicants must be qualified to teach in the 
general area of urban affairs/policy, urban  public administration, or 
urban planning.  We seek an individual with strong theoretical 
interests, as well as research strength in qualitative or quantitative 
research methods, along with an interest in applying those intellectual 
skills to addressing and resolving issues in the urban arena.  We are 
especially interested in candidates who would contribute to the 
School’s racial and ethnic diversity and whose research and teaching  
interests relate especially to the dynamics of race and class in the 
urban arena.

The School offers excellent teaching and research support; and its 
location in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area 
provides an ideal urban laboratory for research, teaching, and 
community service.  The School, with an interdisciplinary faculty, 
offers  Doctoral Degrees in Urban and Public Administration, and Urban 
Planning and Public Policy, as well as Masters degrees in Urban 
Affairs, Public Administration (accredited) and City and Regional
