The campus system and residential services provided by the Lucca Foundation for Higher Education and Research (FLAFR) create a vibrant, close-knit intellectual community.

IMT Institute for Advanced Studies Lucca is seeking to appoint Assistant Professors and Post-Doctoral Fellows ( http://www.imtlucca.it/faculty/positions/young-research-fellows_positions.php ) in the following fields:
- Economics
- Political Sciences

Preference will be given to candidates who have recently completed or are near completion of their Ph.D. degree, or candidates with experience in formal instruction at the graduate-level.
