Nontenure Faculty Pool - Medical Laboratory Science

The Medical Laboratory Science Program seeks to develop a pool of candidates for possible temporary/nontenured faculty to teach. Temporary/nontenured faculty are appointed to teach one to four courses (lecture sections, lab sections, and/or both) per semester. Teaching appointments are based upon student demand on a semester-by-semester basis. Eligibility for annual reappointment is contingent upon satisfactory performance during the term period, in addition to continuity of funding and program need.

Successful candidates will teach at the San Marcos campus, hybrid, and/or online, depending on the needs of the academic program.

This posting is for the Fall 2025, Spring 2026, and Summer 2026 semesters. Please note that this posting is not intended to convey that such a need currently exists.
