Should we have an opening and be interested in pursuing your

Department Summary The Center for World Languages and Cultures (CWLC) promotes engaged learning, teaching, and practice of the world’s languages and cultures; integrates languages and cultures into all disciplines and fields of study; and builds and supports interculturally competent
communities through the exploration and experience of languages and cultures at the University of Denver with its local and global communities and partners. The CWLC is part of the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS), the University’s largest unit. Housed in the CWLC, the first-year language program (FYLP) offers study in nine languages and aids students in experiencing the world through the lens
of an acquired language, and in understanding cultures –their own and others – from a position different from their primary language and cultural identification. The linguistic contribution to intercultural competency – that is to say, understanding another culture in the language of that culture and not just through the translations and perspectives of a mother-tongue and culture – is integral to achieving personal,
social, and professional successes in a multi-cultural and global future. Position Summary The CWLC at the University of Denver seeks to hire adjunct faculty in Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish. Adjunct faculty will teach 4 credit-courses for the first-year language program (1001, 1002, 1003). These are part-time positions. Teaching load could consist of 1 to 3 sections of the same course per
quarter based on candidate’s availability and departmental needs, for up to 6 sections per academic year. The ideal candidate demonstrates experience in teaching the first-year language program, versatility in inclusive pedagogy, and proficiency in communicative, task-based teaching methods. Candidates who demonstrate potential for teaching excellence will be strongly preferred. Essential Functions Job requirements
