[ES_JOBS_NET] Visiting Assistant Professor of Environmental Science (Hydrology, Climate Change)

[Lynne Gratz]

Colorado College's Environmental Studies Program is hiring a one-year visiting assistant professor of environmental science to teach courses in climate change and hydrology for the 2021-22 academic year. The successful candidate will teach six courses - Introduction to Global Climate Change (3 sections), Hydrology (2 sections), and an upper division elective in their area of expertise (1 section).

One distinguishing feature of Colorado College is its Block Plan, in which professors teach, and students take, one course at a time. Each block is three and a half weeks long, and professors teach six of the eight blocks in an academic year. Applicants must therefore 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 Environmental Studies program.

Visiting assistant professors at Colorado College receive competitive salaries, benefits, and professional development opportunities.

The College actively promotes a dynamic and inclusive environment in which students and employees of diverse backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives can learn and work. We are also committed to becoming an anti-racist institution in all of our policies, practices, and pedagogies. Applicants should describe the ways in which they can contribute to these goals.

Preferred qualifications: Ph.D. in a related field (e.g. environmental science, hydrology, etc.) by start of employment and experience teaching undergraduate courses similar to those required by the position.
Applicants should submit: 1) a cover letter, 2) a curriculum vitae, 3) a statement of research interests, 4) a statement of pedagogical principles, 5) evidence of teaching effectiveness, 6) graduate transcripts, and 7) contact information for three references. Position open until filled.
