Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Economics Department in the Villanova School of Business (VSB) at Villanova University is seeking applications for a non-tenure position beginning Fall 2026. The primary responsibilities of this position are teaching and service.

VSB employs a holistic, portfolio-based approach to faculty hiring in support of its mission of delivering high-quality research, teaching, and service. This position is designed for faculty strongly committed to Villanova’s mission of teaching excellence and meaningful engagement with students, not intended as a pathway to a research-focused, tenure-track appointment.

Faculty in the Economics Department in VSB also advise economics majors under the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS). We seek applicants who are willing to serve as economics major advisor.

Duties include teaching introductory courses, with opportunities to teach upper division coursework (including in the Professional MBA program) depending on the individual’s area of specialization. This individual is also expected to provide service activities to the department, college, and/or university, as well as demonstrate continued engagement with the academic community in their field.

Villanova is a Catholic university sponsored by the Augustinian Order. The University is an equal opportunity employer and seeks candidates who understand, respect and can contribute to the University’s mission and values.
