Community College of Philadelphia is an open-admission, associate-degree-granting institution which provides access to higher education for all who may benefit. Its programs of study in the liberal arts and sciences, career technologies, and basic academic skills provide a coherent foundation for college transfer, employment and lifelong learning. The College serves Philadelphia by preparing its students to be informed and concerned citizens, active participants in the cultural life of the city, and enabled to meet the changing needs of business, industry and the professions.

To help address broad economic, cultural and political concerns in the city and beyond, the College draws together students from a wide range of ages and backgrounds and seeks to provide the programs and support they need to achieve their goals.

The Department of Foundational Mathematics invites applications for part-time 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. The Department has an ongoing need for part-time faculty who can teach in-person courses and strongly encourages applicants with in-person teaching availability to apply.

We are committed to designing and delivering instruction that builds the foundational mathematics skills students need for success in future college-level courses and to meet the quantitative requirements of their degree or certificate programs. Real-world applications are essential to our teaching; faculty are expected to integrate them to make concepts concrete and strengthen understanding. We also strive to create supportive classrooms that uphold academic rigor while addressing the diverse needs and readiness levels of students in developmental mathematics.
