The posting

Department:

School of Law

Job Summary:

The University of Mississippi School of Law invites applications and nominations for as many as two tenure-track professors to begin in the 2027-2028 academic year. Appointments will be at the rank of Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor depending on experience. We invite and encourage scholars in all fields to apply as our teaching needs are quite broad. We are most interested in candidates who wish to teach Torts or Civil Procedure. We are also interested in candidates who wish to teach other 1L and Bar-tested subjects such as Criminal Law and Family Law, and we may also consider candidates who wish to teach Criminal Procedure, Evidence, and Business and Commercial Law. Finally, we are always looking for candidates who can expand our course offerings in growing practice areas such as Health Law, Labor & Employment Law, and Insurance Law.

Position Details Appointment: 9-Month Assignment Type: Tenure-Track

Job Description:

Tenure Track Faculty members perform the functions of teaching, research or creative activities, and service and are assigned to an academic unit appropriate for their Discipline descriptor. Tenure Track Faculty members are usually hired as assistant professors and enter the tenure track. For example, an assistant professor must serve a probationary period of five years and be reviewed for tenure during his or her sixth year of continuous employment at the University. Tenure Track Faculty members may be hired, particularly at the associate and full ranks, with a reduction in the tenure probationary period, as explained in the Tenure Policy. Tenure Track Faculty members at the Associate and Full ranks are full members of the Graduate Faculty, while those at the Assistant rank are Associate Members of the Graduate Faculty.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
