The Division of Global Engagement (DGE) works to make the University of Oregon a more global university. In 21st century higher education, international engagement is not an optional extra: as noted in UO's Academic Plan, it is a core mission, essential to a thriving, socially salient, intellectually robust, academic community. It is part of the normal functioning of every school, college, department, and center.

DGE works to support and integrate the wide range of international engagements, global-scale projects, and transnational partnerships launched and maintained in our many academic units.

The Division of Global Engagement invites applicants for temporary, part‑time, limited duration teaching positions as Instructors or Professors of Practice to design, lead, or manage for‑credit and/or non‑credit educational opportunities that support the goals and strategic priorities of UO's Global Engagement Mission. All positions hired from this pool will work primarily from the Eugene campus, though opportunities for some work on, or in collaboration with, other UO‑affiliated entities (including global locations) are possible.

• For‑credit courses designed to support UO students as they navigate their global engagement experiences (e.g. study abroad programs, international internships, global research projects).
• For‑credit courses designed to support the ability of UO's international student community (undergraduate and/or graduate) to achieve their academic and professional goals.
• Non‑credit seminars or related instructional opportunities designed to introduce UO students to key themes and issues with global relevance.
• Non‑credit seminars or related instructional opportunities designed to provide professional development to students, faculty, and professionals from UO's partner institutions around the globe.
• Online or remote instructional modules designed to enhance the ability of UO's student population (international and domestic) to succeed in remote and online instruction.
• Other instructional opportunities designed to support UO's Global Engagement Mission.

Connections to professional practice and to emerging technology and ideas in the field of international education or intercultural communication are highly desirable.

• Master’s degree in a relevant field.
• Two years of experience in teaching or instructional design for an institution of higher education OR in the field of international education (broadly defined).
• International experience through study, employment, or residence abroad.

• Ability to teach credit courses, non-credit seminars, professional development programs, in‑person or online to a variety of learner populations.
• Strong interpersonal skills, including the ability to communicate and work effectively with individuals from diverse backgrounds.
• Ability to exercise sound, independent judgement that aligns with strategic and operational goals.

• One year of experience teaching or designing curriculum in an international or cross‑cultural environment.
• PhD or other terminal degree.
• Experience with program management in an international context.

All offers of employment are contingent upon successful completion of a background check.
