Position TitleFoundational Mathematics, Full-Time Faculty (3 Positions)
Requisition NumberFAC00552
General Description
The Department of Foundational Mathematics invites applications for full-time, tenure-track faculty for the 2026–2027 academic year.

This role offers the opportunity to teach, mentor, and support students while advancing the College’s commitment to effective instruction and student success.

This plan firmly plants student success at the center of all efforts, establishing the means for each student to achieve their goals.

Teaching faculty are an integral part of the larger Academic and Student Success Division at CCP including Workforce Development or Career Training. The Academic and Student Success Division is a community of learners committed to student success as demonstrated through equitable and measurable outcomes, innovative practices, relevant curriculum, quality learning, and a rewarding student experience.
