We are looking for

**Teaching Assistants - Economic Growth & Climate Change (gn)**

for Lion Hirth's lecture on Economics II: Economic Growth & Climate Change at the Hertie School.

Academic growth plays a paramount role. It is difficult to imagine a social phenomenon that matters more for the lives of people than long-term economic growth. For millennia, nearly all people throughout the world lived on subsistence levels. Within a few centuries, per-capita income in some regions of the world increased 100-fold, while in others no sustained economic growth occurred. Some countries, however, have caught up dramatically within a few decades. Describing and explaining these patterns is the realm of theories of economic growth and development.

Your tasks:

- Prepare and teach two weekly 90-minute labs, for 12 weeks, in person or online, depending on course needs;
- Attend and support the weekly Economics II lectures;
- Student support, of which at least 60 weekly minutes should be regular office hours;
- Provide grading support and proctoring of exams and assignments for the instructor and assist with the development of the assignments themselves;
- For Lead TAs: Coordination of all the labs and Exam wrap-up.

**Workload**

Regular TA: The total workload for regular TAs is 173 hours (an average of 6.7 hours per week over the 6 months).

Lead TA: The total workload for regular TAs is 195 hours (an average of 7.5 hours per week over the 6 months).

Your profile:

- Strong background in economics (students at the Master‐ or PhD‐level);
- Excellent pedagogical and communication skills (i.e., ability to explain key concepts in an intuitive manner for students with limited prior exposure to quantitative material).
- Any previous teaching experience is highly valued.

We offer:
A stimulating international and diverse environment in multiple areas of social science, high-quality teaching and public policy. The Hertie School is a vibrant academic community that emphasizes excellence in research and teaching as well as an interdisciplinary perspective. Our school has been certified as a family friendly work environment in higher education and an equal opportunity employer. Severely disabled applicants are given preferential consideration in the event of equal qualification.

Please contact Jonida Popi, Coordinator Curricular Affairs, for further information about the position.
