Georgia State University’s College of Law seeks applicants for a full-time Clinical Professor in its Low-Income Taxpayer Clinic (Tax Clinic). The Clinical Faculty position has faculty status, voting rights, research and service expectations, as well as a renewable contract and job security commensurate with tenured faculty, although it is a non-tenure track position.  Dependent upon an applicant’s qualifications and interest, the position may be filled as the Clinic Director and/or include doctrinal teaching. The start date is flexible, dependent upon date of hire.

The Clinical Professor will be responsible for clinical teaching as well as oversight of the Tax Clinic. Responsibilities will include the supervision of students in all aspects of client representation, case selection, and client communication as well as developing and teaching related course work. Applicants should have a strong background in tax as well as a record of, or demonstrated potential for, successful clinical teaching, professional engagement, and service.

Part of a comprehensive research university, and about to move into a state-of-the art new law facility in the summer of 2015, Georgia State University College of Law is a dynamic urban-centered law school located in the heart of Atlanta with 650 full- and part-time law students.  The Tax Clinic provides controversy resolution services to low-income individuals who have disputes with the Internal Revenue Service. The Tax Clinic, founded 22 years ago, operates as an important component of the College of Law’s experiential learning program.

Applications are encouraged from candidates who would diversify the faculty. Georgia State University, a unit of the University System of Georgia, is an equal opportunity/affirmative action educational institution and employer.  As Georgia State University requires, an appointment is contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background investigation.

This position is open until filled and applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.  Please direct all applications and inquiries to:
