Position description
The Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California, Berkeley, invites applications for a pool of qualified temporary instructors to work as lecturers, teaching courses in a School that confers professional graduate degrees (MPP, MPA, and MDP) and the PhD degree in Public Policy.

The courses may encompass both core curriculum (Economics, Quantitative Methods, Law & Public Policy, Introduction to Policy Analysis, Advanced Policy Analysis, and Politics & Public Policy); as well as its breadth curriculum (policy applications in specific disciplines and/or specializations, as noted below in Preferred Qualifications). Lecturers may be hired to teach at the undergraduate and/or graduate level, should an opening arise. Please note: The use of a lecturer pool does not guarantee that an open position exists.

The pool will remain open for one calendar year; those interested in remaining in the pool beyond that time must reapply. We typically review applications for Spring course needs in October and November of the previous calendar year (i.e., the preceding Fall). For our Summer and Fall semester hiring needs, applications are typically reviewed in March and April. The number of positions varies from semester to semester, depending on the needs of the school.

Teaching Responsibilities: Primary duties include teaching undergraduate and/or graduate-level courses, typically one course per semester.

General Duties: In addition to teaching, duties may include creating a course syllabus for enrolled students; creating midterm examination materials; creating final examinations as necessary; creating problem sets (as appropriate); creating writing assignments; holding office hours; assigning grades; preparing course materials; and advising and mentoring graduate or undergraduate students on independent research projects.
