    Job Description

    Cornell College, a private undergraduate liberal arts college, is seeking a part-time Lecturer in Economics and Business beginning Fall 2024. A Master's degree is preferred. Experience as an entrepreneur and in the study of entrepreneurship is required. Experience teaching entrepreneurship is strongly preferred.

    Course and term dates:

    ECB 251: Introduction to Entrepreneurship (Block 2: 9/23/24-10/16/24)-This course provides an introduction to the study of how business enterprises are created and revitalized. It is intended for anyone interested in starting a business or working for an entrepreneurial company. In particular, this course focuses on identifying and evaluating winning opportunities for new business, while also providing an overview of the financial, marketing, organizational, and managerial tools and methods that entrepreneurs use when creating and shaping both for-profit and non-profit enterprises.

    Because Cornell College values diversity and strives to create a welcoming community in which all individuals are respected and included, the entire campus community engages in dialogue around issues of difference, identity, and ideology. The college is committed to fostering a faculty and staff community that reflects our diverse student body. We encourage applications from candidates who share our vision for a campus that embraces differing backgrounds, viewpoints, and identities, and who will excel at teaching and mentoring a student body that is broadly diverse. (See our diversity statement.)

    The college encourages interdisciplinary interests among its faculty and the development of teaching strategies that capitalize on our unique academic calendar. Our academic calendar allows us the freedom to take students off-campus without impinging on other course commitments. In addition, class size is limited to 25 students, and upper-level courses are often smaller.

    About Cornell College

    Cornell College is a national liberal arts college committed to excellence in teaching and the creation of a welcoming community in which all individuals are respected and included. Our innovative curriculum includes a focus on the essential abilities of writing, quantitative reasoning, and intercultural literacy as well as experiential learning. Cornell's One Course At A Time (OCAAT) academic calendar is divided into eight- 31⁄2 week blocks in which students take and faculty teach a single course. This one-at-a-time approach fosters strong student engagement and close faculty-student relationships while allowing faculty freedom to design and carry out their classes, on campus or off.

    Founded in 1853, Cornell's distinctive campus community reflects our ongoing pursuit of our core values and continuing tradition of shared governance. Always a coeducational institution, we were the first college west of the Mississippi to graduate both men and women and the first college in the country to afford a female faculty member the same title and pay as her male colleagues. Academic immersion, real world experience requirements through Ingenuity in Action, and unparalleled flexibility attract an ambitious student body from around the world. Seventy percent of our students are from outside Iowa, representing 44 states and 13 foreign countries. Students of color comprise one-fifth of the student body.

    Cornell's picturesque hilltop campus contains a mix of historic and modern facilities. Mount Vernon, Iowa, is a flourishing community with a vibrant arts scene, recognized by Frommer's as one of "America's Coolest Small Towns" and located in the heart of the Iowa City-Cedar Rapids technology corridor.

    Applications will be reviewed as submitted and continue until the position is filled.
