From a recent email message:
The University of Kansas School of Law invites applications for up to four tenure-track/tenured associate professor/professor positions to begin fall 2024. We invite entry-level and lateral candidates in the areas of (1) Civil Procedure, Jurisdiction, and Evidence, (2) Environmental, Renewable Energy, and Natural Resources Law, (3) Health Law, and (4) Comparative, International, and International Business Law. Qualified candidates who will contribute to the diversity of our law school community, including a diversity of scholarly approaches, are especially encouraged to apply.
Applicants must possess a J.D. from an accredited U.S. law school or equivalent degree and must demonstrate strong scholarly potential and a commitment to excellence in teaching. Tenured lateral candidates must also have a demonstrated outstanding scholarly career and a history of effective teaching and substantive service. The School actively seeks applications from members of groups that are underrepresented in higher education.
Review of lateral applications begins August 7, 2023. Review of entry-level candidates will begin August 28, 2023. Review of applications will continue until the positions are filled. Initial interviews will be conducted via Zoom. We will review candidate materials posted in the AALS Faculty Appointments Register (FAR), and also invite applications from candidates not participating in the FAR. Applications must be submitted online at:
and should include a cover letter that specifies subject matter teaching interest(s), a CV/resume, a detailed statement of research interests/future plans, a statement related to diversity, a writing sample, and the names of three references. Materials such as teaching evaluations or additional samples of scholarly work may be requested of candidates at a later date. For fullest consideration, candidates not participating in the FAR should apply by August 7, 2023.
