The Department and School welcome applications from qualified candidates working within any subfield in Environmental Politics. The search is open in terms of methodological specialization, although candidates are expected to be able to demonstrate expertise in either quantitative or qualitative methods, or both.

The School of Environment is highly interdisciplinary; the successful candidate will have demonstrated an excellent capacity to work in an interdisciplinary context and to develop interdisciplinary collaborations.
An applicant’s record of performance must provide evidence of outstanding research potential and the ability to teach effectively at the undergraduate and graduate level, as well as the ability to provide supervision for graduate students.
Applications should include a letter of motivation, curriculum vitae, graduate transcript, three letters of reference, samples of written work (up to three reprints), a teaching statement (including material pertinent to teaching skills), and a research statement. The position start date is August 1, 2017.

The Department and School maintain close relationships with other units at McGill with interests in the environment such as the School of Public Policy, which is expected to take in its first cohort of students in 2018, the McGill Institute for the Study of International Development (ISID), mcgill.ca/isid, and the Institute for Health and Social Policy mcgill.ca/ihsp/.
Inquiries about this position may be sent to the Chair of the Department of Political Science, Hudson Meadwell, [log in to unmask], or to Professor Sylvie de Blois, Director, McGill School of the Environment ([log in to unmask]).
