Jonathan M. King

Jonathan M. King is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science, which he joined shortly after receiving his Ph.D. from Michigan State University in 2023. His teaching interests focus on American judicial institutions, including courses on constitutional law and judicial politics and process.

Professor King's research broadly examines how judges are nominated and confirmed to the U.S. federal judiciary, how their personal attributes influence what they do when they are on the bench, and how the public then views their decisions.
