NYU Shanghai is currently inviting applications for two tenure-track positions at the rank of Assistant Professor in the area of Finance to start in the Fall Semester of 2026.

Terms of employment at NYU Shanghai are comparable to NYU New York and other U.S. institutions with respect to research start-up funds and compensation, and they include housing subsidies and educational subsidies for children.

We seek candidates who have completed a doctoral degree (or have completed all but dissertation) in Finance, Economics, or a related field and demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence in scholarly research and teaching.

Applications are due no later than November 30, 2025. To be considered, applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, separate statements of research and teaching interests (no more than three pages each), and electronic copies of up to three representative publications and/or working papers. To complete the online process, applicants will be prompted to enter the names and email addresses of three references, who will be contacted to upload their reference letters.
