Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

Albion College is seeking an excellent teacher for a tenure-track position microeconomics starting August 2020 (pending approval). Teaching responsibilities: three undergraduate sections per semester, including economic principles, intermediate microeconomics/managerial economics, statistics, and data analytics with Excel and other tools. Eventually, the person hired will be expected to teach a first-year seminar or interdisciplinary honors social science course. Possible but not required: teach an elective in economics or management or a course addressing environmental, ethnicity, gender, or global issues. Courses should be perceived by business undergrads as both rigorous and relevant. Advising and mentoring students are important responsibilities. Applicants must expect PhD completion by August 2020, and provide evidence of effective teaching and potential for ongoing scholarship.

Albion College has an increasingly diverse student body with growing numbers of first-generation college students. We have small classes, and our faculty often have the opportunity to teach students who have previously taken classes from them. Housing in the city of Albion is quite affordable. The College provides modified job duties for new parents, paid family and medical leave, and tuition benefits at Albion and other liberal arts colleges for children of faculty.

Submit application materials to https://apply.interfolio.com/70367. Priority given to candidates whose applications are complete by November 18, 2019. We will interview at January 2020 ASSA meeting in San Diego.
