Chairs in Transnational Governance
School of Transnational Governance
Florence, Italy
The European University Institute’s School of Transnational Governance seeks to
recruit outstanding scholars for three chairs in Transnational Governance.
The School of Transnational Governance (STG) (https://stg.eui.eu/) was created in
2017 with the aim of delivering teaching and high-level executive education in the
methods, knowledge, skills and practice of governance beyond the State.
Candidates should enjoy an international reputation in the social sciences and
humanities with an openness to inter-disciplinarity. Their experience and expertise
should be within areas relevant to transnational governance in all its forms,
especially but not exclusively in the following areas:


  • Global South: with particular reference to substantive policy areas related
    to development, such as economic growth, corruption, poverty reduction or
    resource-management.

  • Global Public Health: with a transnational outlook, including the ‘nexus’ of
    economic risks and social welfare.

  • Leadership: including decision-making theory and practice; the interplay of
    private and public sectors; ethics.

  • Transnational law: with particular emphasis on issues, forms and regulation of
    the law beyond the State.
    The successful candidates will support the further development of the STG and will
    have a proven track-record of innovative course design, programme development
    and teaching at the Master level. Candidates will have a strong publication record,
    a demonstrated interest in transnational dimensions of public policy, experience in
    developing and delivering executive education programmes, and a proven ability
    to mobilise external funding.
    The EUI is an equal opportunities employer and takes into account the importance
    of balance in gender, geographical and minority representation.
    For more information or to apply, consult http://www.eui.eu/vacancies
