2024-25 AY Lecturer Pool - Nutrition, Food, and Dietetics
Jul 14, 2024Job Description
DEPARTMENT:
Nutrition, Food, and Dietetics
POSITION TITLE:
Lecturer Pool - Nutrition, Food, and Dietetics
POSITION DETAILS:
The Department of Nutrition, Food, and Dietetics is seeking qualified instructors for part-time lecturer positions. We seek instructors from the fields of nutrition, food safety, food management, community nutrition, and food sustainability. Familiarity and/or experience with the role of nutrition and food in individual and family health, cultural and behavioral influences on food selection, and the management of commercial and noncommercial food systems is favored.
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 and/or teaching 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 2023, the classification salary ranges for the respective ranks are:
Lecturer A: $5,007 - $6,359
Lecturer B: $5,925 - $12,594
Lecturer C: $6,500 - $13,831
Lecturer D: $8,184 - $14,487
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.
If you were a Lecturer A assigned 3 units at the minimum salary, your pay would be structured as follows:
$5,007 x 3/15 (3 units out of a possible 15 units total) = $1001.40 x 6 checks = $6,008.40 total for 3 units/semester.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
Master’s degree in Nutrition or related field. For some courses certification as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist is required.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
Doctorate degree, prior teaching experience at the college level. For some courses certification as a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist is preferred.
