The Marketing Department in the College of Business is collecting application materials for a pool of part-time lecturers with positions available as determined by need during the 2026-27 academic year. Specific course/discipline needs are primarily in the areas of Survey of Marketing (Intro to Marketing) and Business Communications. Applicants with an ability to also teach sales, marketing strategy and retailing are preferred.

Appointments from the lecturer pool are temporary and often made just prior to the start of the academic term.

The minimum education requirement for a lecturer appointment is a Master’s degree in Business Administration or a related field.

Preferred candidates will have college teaching experience at the university level and/or work experience related to the course needs listed above. Candidates should be available to teach on-campus, in a face to face modality. Having flexibility with days of the week and times of the day available to teach is also an important preference of the hiring committee.

Additional information may be requested at a later time.
