Fixed it. Should have been a urologist.

Let me know if you have any questions, either by DM or email. More details and application link here: econjobmarket.org/positions/9861. Hope to hear from you soon! 9/9

We’re especially eager to add to our department’s diversity: women, persons of color, LGBTQ+, persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply.

And of course we’re in Boston, an amazing cosmopolitan city (you’re likely familiar with it!). And we’re on a beautiful campus that’s abutted by two T lines and has easy parking, plus D-1 sports and a great arts scene. 7/x

And the econ PoP role is especially great, as we’re paid like tenure-track faculty and not looked at like second-class citizens. We are actively involved in the life of the department: thesis advising, academic advising, undergrad research supervision, etc. 6/x

BC is a great place to be a PoP, as most other departments have similar positions, so it’s easy to find like-minded collaborators and friends for team teaching (like our core renewal classes), guest lectures, pursuing research ideas, or just socializing. 5/x

If you’re not familiar with the idea of a Professor of the Practice, it’s a non-tenured, contract position (most likely for 3 years at a time), but the assumption is that you’ll be renewed and get to stay with us for the long haul – if we do our hiring well, anyway! 4/x

I love my job: I get to focus on teaching our awesome undergrads who really do want to be “men and women for others,” and get them excited about research and public policy, but I also have a reasonable teaching load where I can teach what I want. 3/x

This year Boston College’s Economics Department is hiring TWO more Professors of the Practice (PoPs), focusing on folks who teach Principles and a great elective, or Stats/Metrics and a great elective (of their choosing). 2/x
