2025-26 AY Lecturer Pool - Doctorate in Educational Leadership
DEPARTMENT: Doctorate in Educational Leadership
POSITION TITLE: Lecturer Pool - Doctorate in Educational Leadership
POSITION DETAILS:
The Doctorate in Educational Leadership Program is designed for working professionals and produces exemplary educational leaders for schools, community colleges, general education environments and community organizations. The program develops anti-racist educational leaders who are reflective, asset-driven, research-informed, and who address intersecting injustices.
Duties of a part-time lecturer 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.
Part-time lecturers are instructional faculty 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 our 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.
Rank and Salary
Initial rank and salary for lecturer faculty are based on professional experience and educational background and are determined by the hiring department.
Most new lecturers are hired at the Lecturer A or B rank. As of July 2024, the classification salary ranges for the respective ranks are:
- Lecturer A: $5,507 - $6,677
- Lecturer B: $6,221 - $13,224
- Lecturer C: $6,825 - $14,523
- Lecturer D: $8,593 - $15,211
The salary ranges indicated are based on a "full-time rate" (15 weighted teaching units [WTUs]). A semester's worth of compensation is made up of six (6) payments of the given amount. To calculate your salary for a semester, the base rate would be pro-rated based on the units worked out of 15 WTUs. Example:
Lecturer A assigned 3 units at the minimum salary would be $5,507 x 3/15 = $1,101.40 per paycheck, six checks = $6,608.40 total for 3 units/semester.

Doctorate degree in Public Administration, Public Policy, Education Administration, Education Policy, Educational Leadership or relevant disciplinary emphasis related to educational praxis. Record of quantitative research methods, statistics and policy analysis.
