We particularly welcome applications from candidates with expertise in Political Communication and/or Environmental Communication. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, misinformation and disinformation, public opinion, news and media trust, civic engagement, climate change communication, and sustainability communication. We also welcome applied or solutions-oriented research that connects theoretical insights to areas of practice such as journalism, strategic communication, public policy, advocacy, or platform and technology governance.

Candidates using any methodological approach are welcome to apply, with preference for those with expertise in quantitative, computational and/or experimental methods.

The selected candidate(s) will join and complement a vibrant and growing community of researchers in Communication and Media whose work encompasses areas as diverse as journalism studies, critical-cultural approaches, digital media studies, cultural production, film and media, globalization, public affairs, corporate ethics, and consumer behavior.

English is the working language of our diverse, international faculty and student community. Knowledge of Spanish is not required.

Our faculty are expected to present their work in international venues and to publish in peer-reviewed journals. Teaching requirements for these positions are the standard for research-active institutions.

New faculty members are expected to provide intellectual leadership within IE University in their areas of expertise, and to contribute to a collegial atmosphere and a diverse, inclusive campus life.

IE University is an internationally recognized institution comprising IE Business School, IE School of Politics, Economics and Global Affairs, IE School of Science & Technology, IE Law School, IE School of Architecture and Design, and the newly established IE School of Arts & Humanities.

Our Madrid campus is situated in the financial district of this vibrant, cosmopolitan capital city of over 5 million people.

In 2021, we opened the doors to the IE Learning Tower – a vertical undergraduate campus located on the northern edge of Madrid’s city center. Our Segovia campus is located in the historic quarter of this World-Heritage city, 30 minutes by high-speed train from Madrid.
