Two Assistant Professor positions with tenure in Economics, Université Paris Dauphine – PSL, Paris, France
The Department of Economics of Université Paris Dauphine – PSL invites applications to fill up two permanent tenured positions at the Assistant Professor level (Maître de Conférences), starting in September 2025.

The teaching load is of 128 hours per year, but we offer a reduced teaching load during the first three years (50% of course exemption the first year and 33% the two subsequent years).

The annual salary is 25,000 - 40,000 Euros after taxes, depending on experience and qualification.
In view of this recruitment process, the Department of Economics organizes “Days at LEDa” on March 25 & 26, 2025. Candidates to the Assistant Professor positions are strongly encouraged to participate in these “Days at LEDa”.
During this event, the candidate will have the opportunity to present a job market paper in a plenary session, and to discuss with the members of the Department of Economics more informally during bilateral meetings. The event will be organized on site. On-line sessions can be organized for foreign candidates upon demand.
