    DEPARTMENT: Computer Science

    POSITION TITLE: Lecturer Pool - Computer Science

    POSITION DETAILS:

    Sacramento State's Computer Science Department is one of the oldest and largest computer science programs in the CSU system. Having educated computer professionals since 1969, our programs currently serve approximately 1600 major students. The Department also offers a variety of non-major courses to students who seek practical experience in the application of information technology, enabling individuals with a background in other areas to obtain the skills and knowledge necessary to enter or advance in computer-related industries.

    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.

    REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
    • Master’s Degree in Computer Science or a related field
    • Excellent communication skills

    PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
    • Doctoral Degree in relevant field
    • Teaching experience at the university level
