Position Overview
The University of Kansas School of Law invites applications from entry level and junior lateral candidates for a tenure-track, associate professor position to begin in the fall of 2022.

Qualified candidates who will contribute to the diversity of our law school community, including a diversity of scholarly approaches, are especially encouraged to apply.
