In Spring 2021, we stopped accepting applications and removed this announcement from our current vacancies website. Position was open until filled, and and applications received by March 1, 2021 received priority consideration.
The University of Baltimore School of Law is seeking faculty in the area of family law, starting in the 2021-22 academic year.

We will consider candidates who are entry-level or pre-tenure lateral. Candidates must have a J.D. degree, with relevant practice experience strongly preferred, and the potential to engage in excellent teaching and scholarship. Because we value the diversity of our faculty and student body, we welcome all qualified candidates including members of communities that are traditionally under-represented in the legal profession and academia.
The University of Baltimore School of Law is part of the University System of Maryland.

As an urban law school, we value diversity, academic excellence, and public service, and seek to improve the legal system and the quality of people’s lives. The School of Law prepares its students to assume leadership roles in the public and private sectors in the City of Baltimore, throughout the state of Maryland, across the United States, and around the world.
