The Geology Department at 6VµçÓ°Íø, the founding member of the Claremont Colleges, invites applications for a 3-year, non-tenure-track position beginning July 1, 2020 to teach courses and assist with senior thesis supervision.
We seek a candidate eager to interact with talented undergraduates in a liberal arts college environment where teaching and research are emphasized. Annual teaching responsibilities are expected to include Sedimentology and Earth History, each with a lab, plus Introductory Geology and one other non-lab course determined through discussion between the candidate and department.
