Associate/Full Professor Tenure System Position Summary: The Michigan State University Board of Trustees approved in 2014 the Academic Competitiveness Fund (ACF) to provide resources for hiring tenure system faculty who will enhance the national and international excellence and competitiveness of MSU as an R1 top-tier research university. From this resource, the Global Impact Initiative (GII) was launched, aiming to recruit 100 new faculty in some of the most exciting new research areas. Entering its second phase in 2022, the GII is now seeking investigators for positions aligned with key areas of research outlined in the University’s 2030 Strategic Plan. This position is supported by Michigan State University’s Global Impact Initiative, which is designed to address global ‘grand’ challenges and national priorities through the creation of over 100 new faculty positions in some of the most promising – and critical– fields of research.
