The Philosophy Department seeks candidates with potential for high-quality scholarship and a commitment to excellent teaching in a liberal arts setting. While candidates who have substantially completed their PhD will be considered, a PhD must be completed before the start of employment. The teaching load for this position is 5 courses a year on a trimester calendar (Fall, Winter, and Spring 10-week terms) with 4 courses in the first year of employment. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to teach a mixture of introductory- and advanced-level courses that should appeal to philosophy majors who are interested in technology, computer science or data science as well as students in other majors who are interested in philosophical approaches to these topics.

Our faculty are affiliated with other programs and departments at Carleton, such as Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies, Statistics and Data Science, or Cognitive Science and have interdisciplinary research interests. Our majors have gone on to graduate school in Philosophy, Engineering, Economics, Psychology, as well as medical school, law school, and have pursued non-philosophical careers with a variety of employers.
