The Industrial Relations Section (IRS) and the Department of Economics invite applications for IRS Visiting Research Scholars for the academic year 2012-2013. The Visitors will spend the academic year in residence at Princeton as guests of the Section and the Department and will be given office space and the opportunity to pursue their own research on any topic in labor economics. A small fund for research expenses will be included. Visitors may participate in the University's teaching program if mutually agreed and subject to approval of the Dean of the Faculty and sufficient course enrollments. Salaries are based on the salary in effect at the Scholar's home institution. Scholars from academic institutions often receive up to one-half their academic-year salaries from their home institutions for the appointment period.

To apply, please submit your CV, research paper or book chapter, and a brief (1-2 page) research statement by December 15, 2011 to https://jobs.princeton.edu, requisition #0110666. In addition, a confidential statement should be attached indicating your salary for the current academic year (September 1, 2011 - June 30, 2012), and what financial support your home institution and other sources are likely to provide during your visit. This information will be held in confidence. Applications are welcome from individuals who will be on leave from full-time positions at universities or research institutions during the 2012-2013 academic year. A PhD is required. Princeton University is an equal opportunity employer and complies with applicable EEO and affirmative action regulations.
