University of California Los Angeles
Requisition Number: JPF09724
The applicant may have a US-focus or another single-country focus, an international and comparative, or global focus. Applicants must have a strong record or demonstrate potential to establish a strong record of peer-reviewed publications.
Responsibilities: The new faculty member will teach courses and conduct research in one or more areas of social policy and causal methods including but not limited to population health policy, social policy and causal methods for assessing public policy impact, social policy and health equity, and related areas.
Qualifications: Qualifications include a strong record of research (commensurate with the rank of appointment sought) and an earned doctorate in public policy, social policy, health policy, economics, social epidemiology, political science, sociology, urban planning, social welfare or other relevant discipline at the time of appointment.
Salary: The posted UC Salary Scales set the minimum pay determined by rank and/or step at appointment. The salary range for this position is $78,200-$101,400, negotiable based on experience. This position is a 9-month, hard money, and tenure-track. Salaries must be approved by the Chancellor. Consistent with recent hires, and based on experience, it is expected that this base amount will be supplemented by an additional 50-55% off-scale rate, equal to a maximum off-scale range of $121,200 to 157,200. This salary does not include other components of pay raised through extramural funds, which would yield compensation that is higher than this range.
How to apply: Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, statement of research, teaching evaluations (if available ), and names of three references to the Chair, Faculty Search Committee. In addition, applicants should submit a statement of contributions to equity, diversity and inclusion, for which guidance is available at https://equity.ucla.edu/faculty-search-process/. All applications should be submitted electronically to UCLA Academic Recruit Portal.

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists’ current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University’s Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled “Authorization to Release Information” into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment reference checks.
