Position Description
The Department of Economics at Pomona College invite applications for a three-year Visiting Assistant Professor of Economics. Qualified candidates should have a Ph.D. in Economics, Public Policy, or a related field (or be near completion). The successful candidate will offer five courses a year, which includes multiple sections of one class (so no more than three preps). The candidate’s course assignments will be determined together with the Department’s chair but will include microeconomics theory as well as our introductory course. Founded in 1887, Pomona College is the founding member of the Claremont Colleges, a unique constellation of five small undergraduate colleges and two graduate institutions located in southern California near the foothills of the San Gabriel mountains, about 35 miles east of Los Angeles. Pomona College’s student body consists of approximately 1,700 students, over 55% of whom identify as a person of color. The College is committed to a need-blind, no-loan admissions policy and values equal access to higher education. Students of the Claremont Colleges can cross-register for courses at any of the colleges, and faculty and staff across the colleges often collaborate. Currently, the Department of Economics consists of 13 tenured or tenured track faculty members, and there are more than 50 economists at the Claremont Colleges. To apply for this position, submit a CV, cover letter, a statement of teaching experience, mentoring or advising a diverse student body (Writing the Equity and Inclusion Statement), evidence of teaching effectiveness, a research statement, and three letters of recommendation. We will begin considering dossiers immediately and until the position is filled. This position is not eligible for travel and moving expenses, nor visa sponsorship. You must show proof of authorization to work in the U.S. As an equal opportunity workplace, Pomona College is committed to equal opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, ability, gender identity or Veteran status.
