Faculty Openings

Faculty potentially interested in joining the PHI program should contact us.

The past decade has witnessed a dramatic increase in Northeastern’s international reputation for research and innovative educational programs. A heightened focus on interdisciplinary research and scholarship is driving a faculty hiring initiative at Northeastern, advancing its position among the nation’s top research universities. Northeastern is interested in “cluster hires” where groups of top researchers in a particular area may come to Northeastern as a unit.
