Position Description
The MS in Financial Economics program at Johns Hopkins University is seeking applications to establish a pool of qualified adjunct instructors for future teaching opportunities. While appointments are based on program needs, we anticipate hiring additional adjunct faculty in upcoming semesters.

We are particularly interested in instructors qualified to teach one or more of the following courses:

• Financial Economics
• Financial Econometrics
• Financial Intermediation and Financial Markets

The ideal candidate has a passion for graduate education and its power to transform the careers of working professionals, international students, and nontraditional learners. Successful candidates will have a demonstrated record of effective graduate (in-person and/or online) teaching and a commitment to creating an engaging and inclusive learning environment.

As the finance profession continues to evolve with advances in artificial intelligence and data analytics, we are especially interested in instructors who can thoughtfully incorporate AI tools and AI-related skills into their teaching where appropriate. Examples include using AI to support financial analysis, data visualization, programming, forecasting, risk analysis, investment research, and decision-making, while also helping students understand the opportunities and limitations of these technologies.

The referenced salary range is based on Johns Hopkins University's good faith belief at the time of posting. The actual compensation offered to the selected candidate may vary and will be based on factors including, but not limited to, the experience and qualifications of the selected candidate - e.g., years in rank, training, field, discipline, other work experience, and other similar factors; geographic location; internal equity; external market conditions; and other factors as reasonably determined by the University.
