Advertising in Academe

Advertising

Academe offers advertising opportunities both in its print and digital editions and in its electronic newsletter. For more information, please email [email protected]. For complete mechanical specifications and advertising terms and conditions, please download the 2025 Academe Rate Card. 

Please note that the AAUP does not accept position announcements from institutions whose administrations are currently censured or sanctioned by the AAUP. However, a listing does not ensure that an institution is in compliance with AAUP policies and standards. 

Print Advertising
