Hiring Announcement: Texas Wesleyan

From an email that I received this week:

TEXAS WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW is excited to expand its academic program and its robust commitment to scholarship with the hiring of up to four outstanding faculty candidates for tenure-track or tenured positions.  We expect to hire for both doctrinal and legal analysis, research, and writing positions.  For our doctrinal positions, we will consider candidates in a wide variety of subject areas, but we are particularly interested in hiring people with research and teaching interests in legal ethics, corporate and transactional law (including corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, and international business transactions), administrative law, and remedies.  For our legal writing positions, we encourage applications from candidates with demonstrated interests in teaching legal writing and other lawyering skills. Our legal writing positions are tenure-track, with candidates expected to produce legal scholarship and eligible to earn professional-skills-tenure.  We welcome entry-level and lateral applications, especially from women, minorities, and others whose backgrounds will deepen our faculty’s diversity.

In its 22nd year, Texas Wesleyan University School of Law has seen tremendous growth in the quality of our students and the research productivity of our faculty.  The law school is located in downtown Fort Worth, in a vibrant atmosphere within walking distance of the city’s courts and in close proximity to many renowned cultural, dining, and entertainment options. The Fort Worth/Dallas metropolitan area, with a total population in excess of six million people, offers affordable housing, high-quality living, and a thriving economy.

Interested persons should email a résumé and a cover letter indicating research and teaching interests to Professor Huyen Pham, chair of the Faculty Recruitment Committee, at [email protected].  Alternatively, materials may be mailed to Professor Pham at Texas Wesleyan University School of Law, 1515 Commerce Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76102- 6509.
