Visiting Assistant Professorship
Northwestern University
The Environmental Policy and Culture Program (EPC) at Northwestern University invites applications for two (2) full-time, two-year visiting assistant professorships, to begin September 1, 2025. EPC is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program with over 100 majors and minors, focusing on social scientific and humanistic approaches to environmental subjects.
These positions are open in terms of period and geographic focus, but we are especially interested in interdisciplinary approaches to environmental justice-driven decision-making and storytelling; policy and governance at local, national, and international scales; and environmental ethics. We are also interested in professional or applied knowledge and experience. The VAPs will each teach five courses a year, at least three of which should be distinct classes (some classes could be taught twice in the same year). The VAPs will also be encouraged to take part in the life of the program, including attending program events, mentoring students, and other forms of community building.
In order to receive full consideration, applications must be received by July 7, 2025.
