About the Job

This position is part-time and will support the Impact Lab in the Carlson School of Management Undergraduate Office. The course taught will be BA 2062: Powerful Problem Solving. The course may be offered in-person and/or online during the day as well as in the evenings.

Duties and responsibilities include course material preparation (i.e. syllabus, handouts, homework assignments, quizzes, exams, etc.), Canvas set-up, textbook selection, course delivery, evaluation of students, grading, record keeping, management/supervision of teaching assistants, office hours, etc.


Qualifications

Bachelor's degree plus 6-8 years teaching experience in a closely related industry and/or academic field, of which 4 or more years must be formal teaching.


About the Department

The Carlson Impact Lab trains undergraduate students in problem-solving and delivers course-based, socially impactful experiential projects to every student at the Carlson School. One of the key distinguishing characteristics of effective leaders is the ability to parse through the overwhelming number of inputs we all receive to understand what needs to be done. "What problem are we trying to solve?" is a crucial question that too often goes unaddressed in the rush to "just fix it". Lecturers teaching Powerful Problem Solving will expose students to a clear problem-solving framework and process, a variety of perspectives on how to approach problems, as well as individual and group activities and assignments to inform and sharpen skills.
