Adjunct Faculty for Economics

Salary: $965/per credit

Trinity Washington University is seeking dynamic Economics Adjunct instructors for Spring 2026 to teach one or more of the following Economics courses:

ECON 101 – Microeconomics I Tuesday and Thursday, 1:30pm-2:45pm

(3 credits)

ECON 102 – Macroeconomics II Tuesday and Thursday, 3:00pm-4:15pm

(3 credits)

ECON 101: This course is an overview of microeconomic theory. It covers the basic principles of the economic approach and develops the demand and supply model of a competitive market. This model is then used to show what economics has to say about real-world markets and government policies affecting those markets. Departures from the competitive paradigm are also considered to show how the economic approach can be useful when markets are imperfectly competitive.

ECON 102: This course is an overview of current macroeconomic theory. It covers the determination of GDP, unemployment, inflation, interest rates, and exchange rates in the long run and in the short run. The course is roughly divided into two halves, with the first half mainly concerned about the long run and the second half mainly about the short-run. Economic growth, potential GDP, and the natural rate of unemployment are discussed in the first half, while economic fluctuations and policies to combat them are treated in the second half. Along the way, students build several simple models that they can use to conduct a macroeconomic analysis of government policies.

Successful candidates should have earned at least a Master's degree in economics or a related field from an accredited institution and should be able to demonstrate strong teaching skills. A resume and cover letter are needed to apply for the position. Any other information that the candidate thinks will support his or her application will also be considered. Such information could include transcripts for degrees earned, syllabi for courses taught, or professional references. Finalists will be invited to campus for an interview and teaching demonstration.

Trinity offers comprehensive and competitive benefits to Adjunct Professor's to include, Supplemental Personal Insurance (AFLAC), 403(b) Retirement Plan – Group Supplemental Retirement Account (GSRA), Trinity Center Membership Free to all employees to include full size pool, walking track, weight & Cardio equipment, Free campus parking, Free Shuttle bus between campus & Brookland Metro station and dining services.
