is in full accord with the value that DU places on Diversity, Equity and
Inclusion (DEI). As reflected in both their instructions and research,

Department thus offers a curriculum that emphasizes the understanding of the
social apparatus which governs the production and distribution of goods and
services, and of how economic theories have developed over time to address
various topics covered in Economics. We present alternative perspectives on

The Department of Economics seeks to hire a half-time Visiting Teaching
Assistant Professor (VTAP; non-tenure-track) who will start September
1, 2024. A half-time VTAP appointment requires teaching four (4) courses
spread across three 10-week quarters during the regular academic year
