New England Law | Boston invites applications for the position of New England Law Faculty Fellow for the 2026-2027 academic year. Fellows teach three courses in the academic year, one or two of which are core courses. Fellows receive mentoring and guidance in teaching, research, and scholarship from New England Law faculty and participate in all aspects of the New England Law community. Fellows will receive research support, including research and travel funding. Fellows are expected to be in full-time residence during the 12-month fellowship.
New England Law seeks applicants with at least three years of significant post-graduate legal experience and strong potential for teaching, research, and scholarship. This year, the law school is particularly interested in applications from candidates interested in teaching first-year doctrinal courses, especially Property, as well as upper-level courses in areas that would enrich our curriculum, such as courses in the Tax and Intellectual Property areas. The salary for the position is $90,000. Fellows will receive the New England Law employee benefits package. Initial Fellow appointments are for one year, beginning August 1, 2026. New England Law expects that most Fellows will serve for two years and participate in the law school faculty hiring market during the second year of the fellowship. Fellows are eligible to apply for tenure-track or other faculty positions at New England Law, should they become available.
Located in downtown Boston, New England Law is noted for providing a welcoming community and early access to practical experience. Founded in 1908 as Portia Law School, the only law school established exclusively for the education of women, our institution has been coeducational since 1938.
Individuals interested in applying for a Faculty Fellow position should submit a letter of application, a résumé or curriculum vitae, a statement of interest including a research proposal, and the names and contact information of three references. These materials should be submitted via email to Deansoffice@nesl.edu, with the subject line “Faculty Fellows Application.”
The Faculty Appointments Committee will begin reviewing applications as they are received, and applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
