    Description

    Calvin University invites applications for a full-time regular faculty member to join the Department of Politics and Economics to teach economics beginning in August 2024. This opening is at the rank of assistant professor, associate professor, or professor.

    REQUIREMENTS

    The university seeks applicants with vibrant Christian faith who are dedicated to integration of that faith with their field of study.

    Qualified candidates will hold a Ph.D. in economics from an accredited university. The department welcomes applications from any economics specialization.

    Candidates are expected to demonstrate excellence in teaching at both the undergraduate and master's levels as well as an active stream of relevant research and publication. Preference will be given to candidates with experience teaching using a variety of methods and instructional technologies.

    The university will prioritize candidates with broad interdisciplinary interests, demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, ability to integrate questions of meaning, significance, and ethics into all course content, and deep commitment to engaging students beyond the classroom.

    FACULTY RESPONSIBILITIES

    Faculty members typically teach 24 semester hours per academic year. Faculty are expected to grow in Reformed Christian commitment, to pursue an active scholarly agenda, to teach effectively, and to serve the university, department, students, and the wider community. Candidates will be asked to affirm their commitment to the educational mission of Calvin University as a Christian liberal arts university in the Reformed tradition. (See Educating for Shalom and Faculty Expectations.) Calvin University provides numerous faculty development opportunities to foster growth in these commitments.

    FACULTY RESOURCES

    Calvin University stands at the forefront of Christian scholarship across disciplines. The University hosts a number of Centers and Institutes and provides other funding opportunities to support faculty teaching and research, including sabbaticals, grants, course releases, summer research stipends, travel funds, and student research opportunities.

    ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT OF POLITICS AND ECONOMICS

    The Department of Politics and Economics offers Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degrees in Political Science and in International Relations and a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in Economics. The department also serves the interdisciplinary Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree program in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (PPE) and the Master of Public and Nonprofit Administration (M.P.A.) program.

    The mission of the department is to equip both students and members of our broader community to build and to participate in institutions that contribute to justice, equity, and universal flourishing. Our curricula provide students with a balanced and comprehensive understanding of politics, policy, and political and economic inquiry. Students receive instruction and experience in disciplinary content areas, writing and speaking professionally, and serving civic purposes as members of multiple communities – local, national, and global.
