Each block is three and a half weeks long, and professors teach six of the eight blocks in an academic year. The successful candidate will teach two blocks of Principles of Microeconomics, three blocks of various microeconomics electives TBD based on expertise, and senior thesis advising (approximately 6-8 students). Applicants must be committed to high quality, innovative undergraduate teaching. The Block Plan lends itself to field and project-based teaching, and funds and logistical support for such projects are available through the college and through the Economics and Business Department.
