The CU Denver Business School seeks individuals with demonstrated commitment to creating an inclusive learning and working environment. We value the ability to engage effectively with students, faculty and staff of diverse backgrounds. The CU Denver Business School seeks to establish and maintain a pool of Lecturers in Career & Professional Development from which future appointments to temporary, non-tenure-track positions will be made. Appointments will be part-time (less than 50% FTE) and will be made semester-by-semester, as teaching needs arise. This posting does not necessarily reflect a current, open position. This temporary Lecturer pool is anticipated to remain continuously active through March 2026, at which point all applications will be cleared from the pool. Applicants will be welcome to apply to future pools after that date. Lecturers selected from this pool will teach Career & Professional Development classes in the Business School at CU Denver.

Classes taught will be at either the undergraduate or graduate level and will generally be limited to one-credit or three-credit hours. Lecturers teaching these classes will instruct in either one or multiple teaching modalities (in-person, online-remote, or hybrid).

Working from the office is encouraged when working on tasks that require a high degree of collaboration.

The salary range (or hiring range) for this position has been established at $5,535 to $6,000 depending upon course level.
