Pennsylvania State University

Position Title/Short Description

Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Department of Economics at The Pennsylvania State University at University Park, PA, USA, seeks to fill multiple teaching faculty positions.

Candidates must be capable of teaching in a large class environment and effectively teach at both introductory and intermediate levels in macro, micro, and/or econometrics. Assistant/Associate Teaching Professors teach a 3/3 load and work as part of a team of instructors tasked with teaching most of the department's introductory and intermediate-level courses. These are non-tenure-track, term appointments, and potentially renewable.

A teaching record of accomplishment is expected, but less seasoned applicants will be considered, especially new Ph. D.s who have taught large classes in their graduate careers.

To be considered, applicants must apply through Penn State’s Job Posting and Econ Job Market sites. The Penn State site requires a cover letter, vitae, and three references with contact information, while the EJM requires a cover letter, vitae, and three reference letters.

These positions will be filled as Assistant or Associate Teaching Professor. A Ph.D. in Economics or a related field is required by the appointment date. Education and experience determine rank and length of term.

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
