Full Job Description

Oglethorpe University welcomes applications for an Instructor of Physics and Astronomy, starting Fall 2026. This is a full-time, three-year, non-tenure track, non-renewable position. A minimum of a master’s degree with 18 graduate semester hours (or 27 quarter hours) in Astronomy, Astrophysics, Physics, or a closely related field, is required. Faculty must be prepared to report to campus full-time beginning August 10; all new faculty are required to attend new faculty orientation on August 17.

Faculty at Oglethorpe prioritize teaching and mentoring, and the successful candidate must demonstrate high potential to succeed on both fronts with our diverse student body. Successful Oglethorpe faculty demonstrate a commitment to the craft of teaching, including the use of evidence-based innovative pedagogy and involvement in scholarly activities to promote student education. The teaching load for this position is four courses each semester. The chosen candidate will teach introductory astronomy, introductory physics, and/or upper-division astronomy and astrophysics electives.

We are open to candidates with backgrounds in all physics and astronomy-related subfields, however strongest consideration will be given to applicants whose expertise enables them to support the Astrophysics Track within the Physics major. The ideal candidate will be able to develop electives that support the Astrophysics track of the Physics major and engage students in apprentice-style and course-embedded research experiences related to astronomy and/or astrophysics. The ideal candidate should demonstrate an interest in mentoring students seeking to pursue careers and graduate study in the fields of Astronomy and Astrophysics.
