UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK

The Faculty of Law invites applications for two tenure track appointments, anticipated to be at the Assistant Professor level. The starting date is July 1, 2015 or such other date as is negotiated with the successful candidate. The positions are subject to budgetary approval.

The Faculty welcomes applications from outstanding scholars of diverse perspectives and will consider an appointment in any field of expertise, although our current priorities are in the areas of contract law (including insurance); employment and labour law; corporate/commercial law; property law (including environmental law and land use planning); and taxation. Candidates will have a strong academic record and will have, or will be completing, a graduate degree in law or a related discipline. They will have a record of, or potential for, excellence in teaching and research.

Founded in 1892, UNB’s Faculty of Law is a collegial community with a deep commitment to its 250 students. We pride ourselves on having one of the most structured JD programs in Canada. All faculty members contribute to, and are committed to, sustaining the core curriculum, which includes compulsory courses in all three years.

The Faculty’s offices, teaching facilities, and the Gérard V. La Forest Law Library are located together in an attractive setting on UNB’s Fredericton campus, above the St John River, in the capital city of New Brunswick. Faculty and students support a variety of causes and events enhancing the civic life of the school and community. The Faculty is home to the UNB Law Journal/Revue de droit de l’U N-B, a student-produced annual. The Faculty offers many opportunities for collaborative work both inside and outside the University.

Review of applications will begin May 15, 2015 and will continue until the positions are filled. Those who submitted applications in respect of the advertisement circulated last fall need not re-apply. Other interested applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, transcripts of university study, a brief statement of research and teaching interests, and the names, postal and e-mail addresses, and telephone numbers of three referees to:
