Candidates with expertise in ecology, health, conservation, and justice are especially welcome. Candidates should have research experience in geographical regions outside of the United States and Europe. Candidates should be willing to participate in the Wofford’s efforts to increase diversity within our own college community, and to prepare our students for living in a globalized world.

The candidate will teach a combination of catalog courses and courses in her expertise. The term of employment is 9 months.
We invite candidates to submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, and evidence of successful teaching (i.e., statement of teaching philosophy and sample syllabi from either a course the candidate has already taught or one she plans to teach at Wofford). Send these materials electronically to [email protected] by the closing date of March 27, 2015. Wofford College is a private liberal arts institution founded in 1854 with about 1,500 undergraduates.
