The Department of Economics at the University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) invites applications for a full-time teaching stream position in macroeconomics. The appointment will be at the rank of Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2027.

We seek enthusiastic and innovative individuals pursuing a successful and impactful career in university teaching, with both the demonstrated ability and capacity to enhance the domestic and international reputation of our undergraduate programs.

REQUIREMENTS AND QUALIFICATIONS

Applicants must have earned a PhD degree in Economics by the time of appointment, or shortly thereafter, specializing in macroeconomics or a related field, with a demonstrated record of excellence in teaching. We seek candidates whose teaching interests complement and enhance our existing departmental strengths.

The successful candidate must present clear evidence of: excellence in teaching in a degree-granting program, including lecture preparation and delivery, curriculum development, and design of high-quality course materials and assessments; a demonstrated commitment to excellent pedagogical practices and continued professional development; a demonstrated commitment to the scholarship of teaching and learning and to educational leadership; good judgement and a reflective approach to teaching innovation; excellent expository, organizational, and interpersonal skills, including the ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues on our courses and programs; and the demonstrated capacity to expertly incorporate current research into our undergraduate courses.

Evidence of the above criteria requires: a creative and coherent teaching dossier that highlights teaching accomplishments, including a thoughtful and compelling teaching statement, sample syllabi and course materials, and teaching evaluations; publications and/or working papers in macroeconomics or a related field; and strong letters of reference from referees of high standing. Evidence may also include professional experiences that enhance teaching, awards and accolades, presentations at significant conferences, or other evidence of superior performance in teaching-related activities submitted as part of the application. The candidate’s teaching dossier, papers, and letters of reference should give evidence of excellent expository, organizational, and interpersonal skills and the requisite expertise in macroeconomics.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Teaching duties are focused on macroeconomics courses in the undergraduate programs of the Department of Economics at the University of Toronto Mississauga. These courses may include program-required courses at the first and/or second year level, as well as upper-year undergraduate courses. In addition, the successful candidate is expected to contribute to the broader Economics community at the University of Toronto through service and administrative activities, and through active participation in teaching and learning workshops, conferences, and mentoring.
