The successful candidate will work closely with Fellows in linked disciplines to share responsibility for teaching, pastoral care and administration for the two degrees which include Economics components.
Your College teaching stint will be 12 ‘weighted’ hours per week, averaged over three eight-week terms. You should be able to teach the full range of first year courses in Economics (currently Introductory Economics, covering introductory microeconomics and macroeconomics), and at least one, ideally two, of the compulsory finals papers in Economics. You’ll arrange teaching with tutors in other colleges to ensure that all the students on a course receive tuition in all the necessary subjects and specialisms. The Department of Economics provides a centralized system to facilitate such arrangements.
In addition to these teaching responsibilities, you will take part in the administration of the undergraduate Economics courses, carrying out the normal duties of a College Tutor. These include organising tuition and the teaching of papers by external specialist tutors, setting and marking Collections (internal termly examinations), attending tutorial board meetings, monitoring progress and writing termly reports on students. You will also take part in the annual admissions procedures for the selection of new undergraduates to read PPE and History and Economics.
