Positions are primarily online with existing course infrastructure provided, allowing instructors to focus on teaching rather than course development. Lecturer‑Pool faculty teach one to four courses per semester based on enrollment.

Lecturer‑Pool faculty hiring is based upon student demand, on a semester‑by‑semester basis.

• Completion of 18 graduate credit hours in Spanish (beyond the Bachelor’s degree).
• Prior experience and strong interest in teaching Spanish at the university level.

• Prior university‑level teaching experience preferred.

• This posting is for Spring 2026.
