Position Summary
The Department of Political Science , University at Buffalo, The State University of New York seeks a Full Professor in American or Comparative Politics focusing on democratic processes and electoral phenomena.
We welcome applicants whose specialties are related to the study of democratic processes, democratic transition, consolidation, and regression, and specifically to the study of phenomena associated with elections. Issues of election reform, electoral integrity, and violence are central to the functioning of democracy both in the US and abroad. While elections are a central pillar of democratic legitimacy and consolidation, they can also serve as targets for instability incited by groups intent on bringing about democratic backsliding. All applicants studying democratic processes in these and related research areas are invited to apply.

The second hire will be at the Associate/Advanced Assistant Professor rank. Candidates that match the Department’s strength in quantitative methods of analysis and formal modeling are especially welcome. The candidates will be expected to contribute to the Department’s PhD program. Teaching will include political science courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Normal departmental, university and disciplinary service duties are expected. We encourage applications from Full Professors and Associate Professors with records appropriate for promotion. Salary and start-up will be competitive and commensurate with rank.
The faculty in the Department of Political Science understand the value and importance of diversity. We are committed to providing an open, supportive, and inclusive environment for all of our students, faculty, and staff members, consistent with the University’s commitment to inclusive excellence. Women and underrepresented candidates are encouraged to apply.
