Overview
DEPARTMENT: Psychology POSITION TITLE: Lecturer Pool – Psychology The Psychology Department at Sacramento State has 30 tenure-track faculty as well as multiple lecturers who serve more than 1,400 undergraduate majors and more than 60 graduate students. The Department offers undergraduate coursework in research methods, quantitative and qualitative analysis, neuroscience, basic and applied areas of psychology (e.g., applied behavior analysis, clinical, cognitive, community, developmental, happiness, industrial-organizational, sensation/perception, and social) and diversity, including developmental disabilities, aging, gender, sexuality, cross-cultural, and multicultural psychology. In addition to the undergraduate major, the Psychology Department offers an undergraduate certificate in behavior analysis and master\'s programs in applied behavior analysis, psychological research, and industrial-organizational psychology. Responsibilities
Duties of a part-time lecturer include instruction, class preparation, grading, and office hours. Other duties may be assigned based on departmental needs. Course assignments, including dates, time, and modality, are made by the Department Chair under the direction of the College Dean. Part-time lecturers are instructional faculty with conditional appointments based on enrollment and budget. Hires from the pool of applicants are made when there are instructional needs to fill coursework offered by an academic department based on changing enrollment patterns, changes to tenure-track faculty assignments, and other factors that cannot be addressed with our existing faculty. Initial appointments are typically for one semester, but occasionally academic year initial appointments are made. Appointments may be renewed based on department needs, funding, and performance. Often appointments are made just prior to the start of the semester. Rank and Salary
Initial rank and salary for lecturer faculty are based on professional experience and educational background and are determined by the hiring department. Most new lecturers are hired at the Lecturer A or B rank. As of July 2024, the classification salary ranges for the respective ranks are: Lecturer A: $5,507 - $6,677 Lecturer B: $6,221 ‐ $13,224 Lecturer C: $6,825 ‐ $14,523 Lecturer D: $8,593 ‐ $15,211 The salary ranges indicated are based on a "full‑time rate" (15 weighted teaching units [WTUs]). A semester\'s worth of compensation is made up of six (6) payments of the given amount. To calculate your salary for a semester, the base rate would be pro‑rated based on the units worked out of 15 WTUs. If you were a Lecturer A assigned 3 units at the minimum salary, your pay would be structured as follows: $5,507 x 3/15 (3 units out of a possible 15 units total) = 1101.40 x 6 checks = $6,608.40 total for 3 units/semester.
