The Division of Professional Studies at SDSU Imperial Valley is accepting applications for the part-time lecturer pool. SDSU Imperial Valley is a college and branch campus within San Diego State University, located approximately 120 miles from the San Diego main campus on the border with Mexico. We welcome applications from prospective temporary faculty with expertise or experience in various subjects, including Criminal Justice, Public Administration, Public Health, and Sociology.

In addition to new hires, all current and previous SDSU Imperial Valley lecturers must submit a new application every academic year to be considered for classes. The application period is from the Spring through the Summer before the Fall semester of the academic year and is valid through the Spring semester of the subsequent year.

Temporary appointments may be either full- or part-time. Appointments from the part-time pool are often made just prior to the start of the academic term, so applicants must be available on very short notice. The Fall term begins mid-August and end late-December; the Spring term begins mid-January and ends mid-May. Opportunities for teaching during the Summer Sessions may also be available.

Initial appointments are typically one semester or one academic year, to be renewed contingent on satisfactory evaluations and continuing availability of work. Applications will remain in our applicant pool during the academic year you apply.
