Job description:
The Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs ranks among the top 15 professional schools of public affairs at public universities in the country; our program concentration in nonprofit management ranks fifth in the nation.
The Institute is widely recognized for its role in examining public issues and shaping public policy at the local, state, national, and international levels, and for providing leadership and management expertise to public and nonprofit organizations.
Employment responsibilities:
The person in this position would contribute to the Humphrey Institute through research, teaching, and outreach.
Essential qualifications:
To be eligible as a fellow, an individual must have at least five years of experience in a major executive, elected, or other eminent position and achieved widely recognized prominence in some field of public affairs. To be eligible as a senior fellow, an individual must have at least ten years of experience and meet one of three additional criteria:
* s/he must be a distinguished scholar with standing, stature,
and qualifications comparable to that of a full professor in an
academic discipline related to public affairs;
* s/he must be a practitioner with a significant national or
international reputation in some field of public affairs that
has been achieved through distinguished, widely recognized public service in major elected or appointed positions in public, private, or nonprofit sectors, in major executive positions, or in some other activity resulting in an eminent, recognized contribution to public affairs; or
* s/he must be a public affairs thinker, author, or entrepreneur widely recognized to have made - or to have the potential to make - a unique and original contribution to public affairs.
In the latter two categories, neither a Ph.D. nor a scholarly publication record is required for appointment as a senior fellow, but the position is roughly comparable to that of a full professor.
Preferred qualifications:
See above.

This announcement does not constitute a notice of vacancy.
