European University Cyprus is inviting applications for diverse faculty roles within its School of Law, offering an opportunity to shape legal education, scholarship, and professional engagement within a dynamic international academic environment. The School of Law is recognised for its rigorous programmes that prepare graduates for legal practice, research, and leadership across jurisdictions, integrating academic excellence with real-world relevance. The appointments form part of EUC’s expansion of its Athens campus and reflect the institution’s commitment to advancing legal scholarship and teaching that are globally informed and locally impactful.
This recruitment encompasses academic positions across multiple ranks, including Lecturer, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor.

Faculty members will play active roles in curriculum development, student mentoring, research dissemination and academic service within a collegial and outward-looking legal community.
Applicants should hold a doctoral degree (PhD, LL.D or equivalent) in a relevant legal discipline, with a demonstrated record of research and teaching. For entry-level and assistant professor posts, evidence of teaching competence and research potential is typically expected, while senior ranks require substantial academic achievements, including publications and leadership in legal scholarship.
