The need for part‑time faculty is greatest in Fall and Spring semesters. The Fall term begins in late August and ends in mid‑December; the Spring term runs from mid‑January through the end of May. Part‑time faculty may also be needed during one of the Summer Session segments on a rare basis.

Regular performance evaluations are conducted in accordance with the faculty Collective Bargaining Agreement and University Policy Statement 210.070. These evaluations determine which lecturers will be retained for future and continued teaching assignments; in some instances, syllabi, assignments and reading materials are reviewed by the departmental personnel committee.

All part‑time faculty appointments are made as Lecturers under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement between the CSU system and the California Faculty Association. Initial appointments are for one semester only.

Classification range: $5,507 – $6,677 per month. Anticipated hiring range—depending on qualifications—does not exceed $6,221 per month. A three‑unit assignment typical starting compensation ranges from $6,608.40 to $7,465.20 per semester.
