We seek to add to our community of talented scholars who work in areas at the cutting edge of today’s research in asset pricing and corporate finance. We are particularly interested on candidates with scholarly interests in financial risk management with application to either asset pricing, corporate finance, or especially, personal finance. We will consider candidates whose work is theoretical and/or empirical, but with strong economics foundations.

The Finance department believes that the cultural and social diversity of our faculty, staff, and students is vitally important to the distinction and excellence of our research and academic programs. To that, we are especially eager to have join our ranks a colleague who supports our institutional commitment to ensuring BU is inclusive, equitable, diverse, and a place where all constituents can thrive. The Questrom School of Business seeks to continue diversifying our faculty, student and staff ranks, recognizing that diversity of experience and thought deepens the intellectual endeavor. Boston University is an institution with a rich tradition dedicated to inclusion and social justice. We are proud that we were the first American University to award a Ph.D. to a woman and of our record of inclusiveness.

Prospective candidates must demonstrate the ability to produce original and innovative scholarly work of the highest quality and impact in top Finance and Economics journals. The candidate should be able to teach at both undergraduate and graduate levels. A Ph.D. degree in Finance/Economics or other closely related area is required. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience.
