Entry level or Experienced teacher Positions THE UNIVERSIT Y OF ALABAMA SCHOOL OF LAW As a result of the law school’s contributions to legal scholarship and public policy as well as its continuing ability to attract an outstanding student body, The University of Alabama has authorized a substantial increase in the size of the law faculty. The law school anticipates hiring approximately ten new entry-level and lateral faculty members over the next two academic years. This hiring should be transformative, permitting active scholars on the faculty to decrease course loads, to engage in activities requiring substantial leave time, and to expand their research efforts in ways consistent with The University of Alabama School of Law’s standing among the leading public law schools of the United States. Accordingly, the law school seeks applications from both current members of the legal academy and new scholars seeking entry into law teaching. Candidates should demonstrate scholarly excellence, a commitment to the highest quality teaching, and deep dedication to service to the law school and outside community.

Currently, the College of Law provides its students a number of opportunities to engage in practice experience through our extensive field placements, specific externships such as the Kentucky Innocence Project, pro bono placements, and fellowships with public interest and government agencies.

This requires creative thinking since part-time students may only have time available during the evenings and weekends. 4. Provide support for faculty who administer our current specialized clinical and public engagement programs to (a) facilitate the continuation and enhancement of current programs, and (b) seek other opportunities for faculty interested in creating new clinical and public engagement programs. 5. Seek, create and implement a substantial increase in the number of opportunities available for Chase students to engage in “live-client” student experiences. These experiences can include, but are not limited to, field placements, specialized internships, as well as pro bono opportunities. 6.
