- IFPRI - Associate Research Fellow
The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) seeks an Associate Research Fellow (ARF) for a two-year, renewable appointment in its Markets, Trade and Institutions Division. This position is based in Dakar, Senegal. The ARF will work with Macroeconomics and Trade Team in implementing research on issues related to trade and regional integration of agricultural markets in Africa. The fellow will be undertaking policy research on key agricultural and food trade issues relevant to the African region, including the newly launched African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) and implications for food security of major informal cross-border trade in agrifood products in the region. The successful candidate will contribute to the annual Africa Agricultural Trade Monitor (AATM) and undertake other quantitative trade policy research as required by the team.Deadline: 9/30/2022 - TU Delft - Post-Doc (Climate Policy Impacts)
Ambitious climate policy, such as the EU Green Deal and Dutch Delta Program, requires comprehensive assessments of its national, sectoral and regional economic impacts along a range of possible long-term socio-economic and climate scenarios. Several research institutes in the Netherlands are currently developing such long-term scenarios taking into account their economic, environmental and welfare effects at subnational level for the Netherlands. This PostDoc project offers a unique opportunity to perform impactful work between advanced academic and policy oriented research by contributing to the development of regional and sectoral long-term scenarios for the Netherlands using a combination of econometric analysis and Spatial Computable General Equilibrium modeling. The ambition is to provide new insights into the implications of climate change and climate policies at the regional scale to develop actionable strategies for aligning socio-economic and climate goals.Deadline: 9/30/2022 - ESRI - Post-Doc (Climate Change Impacts)
The successful candidate will join a team of dedicated climate researchers working on the I3E model. The candidate will be involved in a project on climate change impacts and adaptation options for Ireland. In this project the climate change impacts facing Ireland as well as the adaptation options will be implemented into the ESRI I3E model. This work will involve an extensive literature review and the use of econometric and applied modelling techniques to estimate impacts associated with future climate change scenarios.Deadline: 10/4/2022 - ESRI - Post-Doc (Energy Systems)
The successful candidate will join a team of dedicated climate researchers working on the I3E model. The successful candidate will be working primarily on a Next Generation Energy Systems (NexSys) funded project. NexSys, as a multidisciplinary energy research programme applied to the island of Ireland, is conducted by 46 academics from many leading research institutions work in partnership with industry to tackle the challenges of energy decarbonisation, developing evidence-based pathways for a net zero energy system. This project aims to connect an energy systems model of the ESRI I3E model. The successful candidate will work on formulating a method of connecting the models and implementing this together with the ESRI energy and I3E teams. This work will be used to help better represent the connection between energy and the economy in Ireland and allow for an analysis of the Irish transition to a low-carbon economy.Deadline: 10/4/2022 - ESRI - Research Officer (CGE Modelling)
The Research Officer will be part of a three-member climate modelling team and will primarily be working on the I3E model’s maintenance and development. The ESRI is looking to expand the development and use of this model and is looking for a Research Officer to join the team. The successful candidate will be expected to be an integral part of the future development of the I3E model, where the focus will likely lie be on further disaggregation of the model and linking the I3E to other models (such as energy engineering models). In this respect, the candidate will be working closely with both the macro-modelling and energy teams at the ESRI on the further development and expansion of the I3E model.Deadline: 10/5/2022 - IIASA - Research Scholar
The IBF Research Group, part of the IIASA Biodiversity and Natural Resources (BNR) Program, is looking for a highly motivated applied economist to lead research on international trade policies in support of sustainable development, at the interface between science and policy.Deadline: 10/30/2022 - Purdue - Asst Prof (Macroecon & Trade)
The Department of Agricultural Economics invites applications at the level of Assistant Professor. This is an academic year appointment expected to begin August 2023. We are particularly interested in candidates capable of teaching courses in the fields of Macroeconomics and International Trade. Candidates are expected to teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels, and to supervise graduate students. The expected teaching load is 2-3 courses per year. Potential exists for teaching distance courses. Some research activities should be funded through external grants. The Department has a history of success in acquiring funding from national and international institutions. Incoming faculty are mentored by and collaborate with other faculty and research centers at Purdue.Deadline: 10/31/2022 - Purdue - Asst Prof (Quant Methods)
The successful applicant will contribute to the development and application of frontier quantitative tools in spatial econometrics used across the Department’s areas of strength, including agribusiness, health, international trade and development, industrial organization and supply chain, and environment, natural resources and climate. Teaching responsibilities for the position include graduate training in spatial analysis and econometrics, as well as the opportunity to develop other course(s) in quantitative techniques for graduate and undergraduate students. Potential exists for teaching distance courses. The successful candidate is expected to conduct scholarly research employing frontier quantitative methods, publish in high-impact peer reviewed journals, mentor graduate students, and secure external funding to support their research program.Deadline: 10/31/2022
