Our 1,250-acre College Park campus is just minutes away from Washington, D.C., and the nexus of the nation's legislative, executive, and judicial centers of power. This unique proximity to business and technology leaders, federal departments and agencies, and a myriad of research entities, embassies, think tanks, cultural centers, and non-profit organizations is simply unparalleled. Synergistic opportunities for our faculty and students abound and are virtually limitless in the nation's capital and surrounding areas.

Vaccine Protocol
Position Summary/Purpose of Position:
The Academic Writing Program (AWP) and the Professional Writing Program (PWP) at the University of Maryland, College Park, seek lecturers for the Fall 2023 semester. We are particularly interested in lecturers who can teach Professional Writing courses, including Technical Writing; Business Writing; Writing About Economics; Writing for Non-Profit Organizations; and Writing Case Studies and Investigative Reports. Lecturers may also teach one or more of the following courses: First-year Academic Writing (ENGL101); Writing for Health Professions; and Legal Writing. Lecturers can teach up to four courses per term. Please note that all courses will be taught in person on the College Park campus.

Both the Academic Writing Program and Professional Writing Program are housed in and administered by the Department of English, and these programs are responsible for the courses that meet the university's two Fundamental Studies Writing requirements. The Academic Writing course teaches students how to participate thoughtfully, critically, and persuasively in academic conversations, while Professional Writing courses teach the research, analysis, writing, and language skills that students will need in their lives beyond the classroom.

Lecturers are directly responsible for teaching each 19-student class assigned to them. They design and teach interactive class lessons that help students learn how to plan, develop, compose, and revise each major writing project, and they grade and respond to student writing (at least five major projects per semester, each returned within two weeks of submission). Lecturers hold weekly office hours (at least one hour each week per each course being taught) and respond in a timely fashion to student questions and concerns.

First-time lecturers are issued a standard syllabus and writing assignments for the course, which they are able to adapt in order to build on the experiences and expertise they bring to the particular course. Lecturers also participate in their respective writing program's day-long professional development day before the semester begins and attend weekly (AWP) or biweekly (PWP) mentoring sessions with the program director or administrative fellows.

Lecturers who teach two or more courses are benefits-eligible.
Minimum Qualifications:
In compliance with the University System of Maryland Policy on Appointment, Rank, and Tenure of Faculty and the College of Arts and Humanities Professional Track Faculty Appointment, Evaluation, and Promotion Procedures, the Department of English's minimum criteria for appointment of instructional professional track faculty in the Academic Writing Program and Professional Writing Program is:

Education and Experience:
A Master's degree in the field of instruction or related field and demonstrated successful teaching at the college level and/or relevant professional experience (as determined by the Director of Academic Writing and Professional Writing).

Criteria for evaluating candidates will include the following:
Evidence of success in teaching undergraduate students.
Evidence of expertise that complements or contributes to AWP and PWP's delivery of undergraduate writing courses.
Demonstrated ability to contribute to the diversity mission of AWP and PWP, the Department of English, and the University of Maryland.
Preferences:
Preferences:
Demonstrated ability to incorporate diverse perspectives into teaching.
