Job Description

St. Mary’s College of Maryland is accepting applications for a full-time Visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science position for Academic Year 2025-2026 with the possibility of renewal. Responsibilities include teaching three courses per semester and fulfilling departmental service responsibilities.  The ideal candidate will specialize in International Relations or Comparative Politics. Candidates with experience teaching international or comparative political economy, as well as undergraduate research methods are preferred.  We particularly encourage applications from scholars whose work focuses on geographic regions outside Latin America, as we aim to complement our department’s existing strengths in Latin American studies with diverse global perspectives.

Qualifications include a doctorate in Political Science along with a strong desire for teaching undergraduates. The successful candidate must produce the necessary documentation to legally work in the U.S. upon hire. The salary range is $65,000-$75,000 depending on qualifications and experience.

Non-sectarian since its founding, St. Mary's College of Maryland, a public Carnegie Baccalaureate, Arts and Sciences institution located in St. Mary's City, 70 miles southeast of Washington, D.C., has been designated as Maryland's public honors college. With selective admissions policies, academically talented students, and a rigorous curriculum, we offer a small college experience similar to that found at exceptional private colleges. The quality of life is enhanced by the recreational opportunities of the Chesapeake region and by our proximity to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore.

We create an environment that recognizes the value of individual and group differences and we encourage inquiries from applicants who will contribute to our cultural and ethnic diversity.

In support of inclusive

hiring practices, for all SMCM faculty searches, the College will also request three professional references (rather than letters of recommendation) at the time of application. Of these three references, at least one reference should speak to the candidate's disciplinary expertise and at least one should have seen the candidate deliver or design classroom instruction. References will be contacted only for candidates who advance to finalist interviews. Applications are being accepted online at: .  Questions may be directed to: Dr. Antonio Ugues at 240-895-2169

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the positions are filled. Employment will be contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background check. St. Mary's College of Maryland is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer.
