LEWIS & CLARK LAW SCHOOL in Portland, Oregon, invites applications from candidates for one or  two Assistant Professor positions to begin in the 2025-26 academic year. These positions will  remain open until filled. We seek 1) candidates who can teach classes in the fields of Business and Commercial law, along with first year classes in Contracts or Torts and 2) candidates who have an interest in joining our highly ranked Lawyering/Legal Writing program as an Assistant Professor of Lawyering.

Our law school is highly ranked in Environmental Law and Legal Writing, and was recently included on a list of schools recommended for Civil Rights. Our campus faces a forested state park, and the region around our school offers the vibrancy of city life along with hiking, biking, skiing, and water sports in some of the most beautiful places in the country. Lewis and Clark is a great place to work.

We will begin screening interviews in September, and campus callbacks will take place shortly  thereafter. Applicants who receive an offer will have two weeks to consider the offer. In some  cases, an applicant may need to make a decision before other law schools have completed  callbacks. Applicants should have serious interest in Lewis & Clark Law School and living in the  Pacific Northwest.

Interested persons should send a c.v., references, a writing sample, and an indication of specific  teaching interests to lawfacultyhire@lclark.edu. We also welcome submission of a scholarly  agenda and a description of how the applicant’s teaching and activities will contribute to an  inclusive classroom and campus.
