Job Description
What are we looking for?
We are looking for an experienced Physics teacher who also has the ability to teach Chemistry. Please note any additional subjects you can teach in your cover letter.
What is the context?
Founded in 1982, the United World College-USA is one of 18 United World College (UWC) campuses worldwide and the only campus in the United States. The UWC movement seeks "to make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future." As such, UWC-USA values and promotes all manner of inclusion, diversity, equity, and access as part of our fundamental mission to bring people together across differences in service of a more peaceful and sustainable world. Our students are selected through national committees in more than 150 countries, and nearly 85% of our students are on scholarship, ensuring unparalleled national and socioeconomic diversity in our student body. With expeditionary, place-based, and experiential learning at the center of our academic program, and a strong residential curriculum in our multinational/multicultural boarding environment, UWC-USA stretches its students, faculty and staff to learn and grow in a multi-perspectival community dedicated to democratic processes as reflective of our country location and traditions.
What do we want our education to prepare young people for?
UWC's mission began in response to the international tensions of the Cold War. Its mission to bring young people together before their prejudices are solidified, in service of peace and a sustainable future, is as important as ever. In the world our students know, the main obstacles to unity remain differences in identity that too often separate us from one another: nationality, culture, language, religion, ethnicity, race, gender, and sexual identity. The main obstacles to peace and sustainability today are not entirely new either, but the globalizing forces of our age have reshaped them. No matter where our students come from they increasingly see these challenges up close in local, national or international settings:
Beginning in the 2024-2025 academic year, the educational program at UWC-USA will seek to prepare students for these four global challenges by taking students out of the classroom to meet with organizations and institutions in northern New Mexico on a biweekly basis. For learning to prepare young people for these challenges of the future, we are committed to ensuring that they graduate from UWC-USA with contextualized, real-world understandings of the complexities of the challenges ahead.
