George Mason University (ICAR)

[Department Website][APSA elisting(requires membership)] The Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution (ICAR) at George Mason University invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor rank to begin Fall, 2006. We seek a colleague who studies conflict with multiple methods, particularly quantitative data analysis. The ideal candidate will have combined statistical analysis with other methods (case study, field work, archival research) in his or her research, and have substantive interests in such areas as social movements, race and ethnicity, urban, or environmental conflict. ICAR’s faculty combines rigorous academic research on conflict and methods of conflict resolution with practical involvement in conflict resolution-related projects. It is strongly interdisciplinary and attracts a talented, diverse, and socially committed student body. We offer Ph.D. and M.S. degrees and have just initiated an undergraduate degree in Conflict Analysis and Resolution. The successful candidate will contribute to teaching at all levels, but especially at the graduate level in quantitative research methods. George Mason University is a large and rapidly expanding public university with three campuses in Northern Virginia. ICAR is located in Arlington Virginia, five miles from Washington D.C.
