Masters
The Maine School of Science & Mathematics, Maine’s only public STEM magnet school and one of a small number of public boarding schools in the country, invites applications for a full time Social Sciences/Humanities instructor to join our nationally recognized faculty beginning in August 2026.
Responsibilities:
Teach up to four classes from the following: Anthropology, Sociology, Economics, Digital Humanities, Gender Studies, Religious Studies, African-American Studies, American Studies, Film Studies, Psychology, or another interdisciplinary humanities offering within a related field;
Offer a challenging, but relevant and student-centered, curriculum. The instructor has much autonomy in terms of class content. There is no ‘set curriculum’ to take over – the instructor must use their professional judgement as to how best to deliver the content, though course syllabi from previous years can be provided for guidance.
Design and teach a two-week January-Term course (instructor’s choice of topic);
Collaborate and coordinate with other Humanities faculty to ensure class content fits within overall mission of MSSM;
Serve as an advisor to a small group of students (typically 5-6), acting as the primary point of contact between advisees’ parents and the School;
Act as an advisor/mentor to at least one student club or organization;
Participate fully in MSSM's living/learning community by attending campus events, offering office hours, attending meetings, and being available to meet the needs of our students and community.
Qualifications:
A minimum of a Master's Degree in an appropriate humanities field;
A proven track record of delivering engaging and inspiring humanities classes at the secondary and/or post-secondary level;
The ability to offer an academically challenging, but supportive, classroom experience;
Creative and cutting edge, with the ability to inspire students;
Excellent communication and organizational skills, and a willingness and desire to work with inquisitive and quirky high school students in a close-knit, residential community.
Founded in 1995 as Maine's only public STEM magnet school, the Maine School of Science and Mathematics serves students in grades 9-12 in a fully residential educational setting. MSSM creates a learning environment where curiosity meets challenge and talented students engage in substantive STEM learning.
