Instructional Faculty – Part-time Temporary/Lecturer Pool

The Information Department in the College of Business and Economics at Cal State LA is seeking applications for a pool of part‑time faculty lecturers with positions available as determined by need during the  academic year. Positions will be filled as needed for each academic semester.

Part‑time faculty lecturers are hired with conditional appointments based on enrollment and budget. Hires from the pool of applicants are made when there are instructional needs to fill coursework offered by an academic department based on changing enrollment patterns, changes to tenure‑track faculty assignments, and other factors that cannot be addressed with existing faculty. Initial appointments are typically for one semester, but occasionally, academic‑year initial appointments are made.

Appointments may be renewed based on department needs, funding, and performance.
Often, appointments are made just prior to the start of the semester, so some faculty lecturers may need to be available on very short notice.

Master's degree in information systems or a closely related computing field, or an MBA with a concentration in Information Systems. A candidate should also have current work experience in the field or be able to demonstrate professional currency in the field.

Applicants should have the ability to relate well to others within the academic environment and demonstrate ability and/or interest in working in a multiethnic, multicultural environment. Demonstrated experience and commitment to student‑centered learning and teaching. Demonstrated proficiency in the written and oral use of the English language is required.

Preference will be given to those with experience in working with diverse populations and fostering a collaborative, supportive and inclusive environment. Preference will also be given to those with relevant work experience and training.

Certification in a sub‑field of Information Systems or Information Technology.

Duties of part‑time faculty lecturers include instruction, class preparation, grading, and office hours. Other duties may be assigned based on departmental needs. Course assignments, including dates, time, and modality, are made by the Department Chair under the direction of the College Dean.

Seeking adjunct faculty members to teach courses in Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Software and System Development, ERP Enterprise Systems, Network, and Information Systems Management courses.

The successful candidate will be committed to the academic success of all our students and to an environment that acknowledges, encourages, and celebrates diversity and differences. To this end, the successful candidate will work effectively, respectfully, and collaboratively in diverse, multicultural, and inclusive settings. In addition, the successful candidate will be ready to join faculty, staff, students, and administrators in our university's shared commitment to the principles of engagement, service, and the public good.
