Job Description

The Department of Modern Languages, Linguistics and Intercultural Communication (MLLI) at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) invites applications for a Lecturer and language coordinator in French, beginning August 2023. This is a three-year, non-tenure track renewable appointment.

The qualifications for the Lecturer include having at least an M.A. (Ph.D. preferred) in French or Francophone Studies, and a native or near-native fluency in French and English. The selected candidate will also have extensive and successful experience in teaching university language courses using a communicative methodology, as well as upper-level content courses; a strong background in curricular development and the ability to teach a diverse student population at all levels of French; an active interest in developing study abroad or exchange programs, and experience in integrating technology in classroom instruction (including blended and hybrid language teaching). In addition to teaching, scheduling, and supervising courses in the FREN 101–202 sequence, the Lecturer will teach other courses, such as FREN 301: Advanced French I, FREN 302: Advanced French II, FREN 320: Interconnections: Trade, Technology, and Globalization, French courses at the 400 level and other MLL courses in the candidate’s specialty. Other duties include advising the French Club, the Intercultural Living Exchange French cluster, and the French Conversation Hour. The normal annual teaching load is eight courses.

The university has a student population of 13,640 graduate and undergraduate students.

Our faculty and campus community have a strong commitment to equity and social justice, as do our students. For more information about the MLLI Department, please visit: https://mlli.umbc.edu
