Additional responsibilities include contribution to outreach and recruiting efforts for the Animal Sciences division and ATI as a whole, including engagement with prospective students and stakeholders.

The standard semester course load for full-time (100% FTE) lecturer positions is 2 – 4 courses, 12 credits, or 24 contact hours. The specific courses to be taught are to be negotiated with the Director in consultation with the Area Coordinator, where appropriate, on a semester basis.

In addition to classroom activities, full-time lecturers are expected to hold office hours commensurate with course expectations and these office hours should be clearly communicated to students on each course syllabus. Semester responsibilities run from the first day of classes for the semester through the University established date that grades are due. Information on the official academic calendar can be found on the registrar’s website at:

Full-time lecturers are expected to be involved broadly in the academic life of the Institute. Upon negotiation with the Director, non-classroom student related activities (including, but not limited to, program coordination, academic advising, and club advising) may be considered for equivalence to classroom activities.

As such, finalists for any faculty position that carries tenure must sign an authorization and disclosure form, which will allow current or prior employer(s) to share information to the University regarding any findings of employment-related misconduct or disciplinary proceedings against a candidate and/or any pending investigations related to alleged misconduct. Such information shall include findings and pending investigations with respect to sexual harassment, violence, or harassment;

research misconduct; financial fraud or misconduct; foreign influence violations, grant misuse or misconduct; and/or any other type of finding or pending investigation relating to a candidate’s employer’s policies and rules governing faculty conduct that may reasonably be expected to affect a candidate’s appointment. If the University becomes aware of any past finding of misconduct or pending investigations that were not disclosed, Ohio State will treat that as a serious omission and reserves the right to rescind an offer or terminate employment.

Final candidates are subject to successful completion of a background check. A drug screen or physical may be required during the post offer process.
