The Department offers Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and Master of Science (M.S.) degree programs in civil engineering. Most recently, the Department was ranked 8th among non-doctorate granting institutions by the U.S. News & World Report. The Department is thriving with its diverse student population, diverse faculty, and strong industry and alumni support. The Department of Civil Engineering is interested in hiring part-time lecturers in all areas of Civil Engineering including Environmental Engineering; Transportation Engineering; Surveying; Engineering Graphics/CAD; Engineering Statistics; Hydraulics; Water Resources Engineering; Geotechnical Engineering; Structural Engineering, to teach both lower and upper division required and elective courses. 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 and/or teaching experience and educational background and are determined by the hiring department. Most new lecturers are hired at the Lecturer A or B rank.

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: $5,007 x 3/15 (3 units out of a possible 15 units total) = $1001.40 x 6 checks = $6,008.40 total for 3 units/semester. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS: Master's degree or equivalent educational experience in the relevant field; or Bachelor's degree plus the equivalent of at least five years teaching or relevant professional experience.

DEPARTMENT: Civil Engineering POSITION TITLE: Lecturer Pool - Civil Engineering POSITION DETAILS: The Department of Civil Engineering serves almost 800 undergraduate majors and more than 60 graduate students. The Department offers Bachelor of Science (B.S.) and Master of Science (M.S.) degree programs in civil engineering. Most recently, the Department was ranked 8th among non-doctorate granting institutions by the U.S. News & World Report. The Department is thriving with its diverse student population, diverse faculty, and strong industry and alumni support. The Department of Civil Engineering is interested in hiring part-time lecturers in all areas of Civil Engineering including Environmental Engineering; Transportation Engineering; Surveying; Engineering Graphics/CAD; Engineering Statistics; Hydraulics; Water Resources Engineering; Geotechnical Engineering; Structural Engineering, to teach both lower and upper division required and elective courses. 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 and/or teaching 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 2023, the classification salary ranges for the respective ranks are: Lecturer A: $5,007 - $6,359 Lecturer B: $5,925 - $12,594 Lecturer C: $6,500 - $13,831 Lecturer D: $8,184 - $14,487 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: $5,007 x 3/15 (3 units out of a possible 15 units total) = $1001.40 x 6 checks = $6,008.40 total for 3 units/semester. REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS: Master's degree or equivalent educational experience in the relevant field; or Bachelor's degree plus the equivalent of at least five years teaching or relevant professional experience. Excellent communication skills PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS: Doctoral degree in the relevant field Prior teaching experience at the university level Professional engineering experience and board registration APPLICANT INSTRUCTIONS: New applicants are required to submit: Cover letter Current curriculum vita (CV)/resume Unofficial transcripts of highest degree A list of references Complete the department part-time instructor application form with your course preferences.

COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY - At Cal Poly we believe that academic freedom, a cornerstone value, is exercised best when there is understanding and respect for our diversity of experiences, identities, and world views. Consequently, we create learning environments that allow for meaningful development of self-awareness, knowledge, and skills alongside attention to others who may have experiences, worldviews, and values that are different from our own. In so doing, we encourage our students, faculty, and staff to seek out opportunities to engage with others who are both similar and different from them, thereby increasing their capacity for knowledge, empathy, and conscious participation in local and global communities. In the spirit of educational equity, and in acknowledgement of the significant ways in which a university education can transform the lives of individuals and communities, we strive to increase the diversity at Cal Poly. As an institution that serves the state of California within a global context, we support the recruitment, retention, and success of talented students, faculty, and staff from across all societies, including people who are from historically and societally marginalized and underrepresented groups. Cal Poly is an inclusive community that embraces differences in people and thoughts. By being open to new ideas and showing respect for diverse points of view, we support a climate that allows all students, faculty, and staff to feel valued, which in turn facilitates the recruitment and retention of a diverse campus population. We are a culturally invested university whose members take personal responsibility for fostering excellence in our own and others’ endeavors. To this end, we support an increased awareness and understanding of how one’s own identity facets (such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, social class, and nation of origin) and the combinations of these identities and experiences that may accompany them can affect our different worldviews.
