About the Job
We are interested in building a diverse group of faculty with experience in arts and cultural leadership who are passionate about educating emerging leaders. We're also interested in engaging first-time instructors who are themselves arts and cultural leaders. Teaching Specialists report to the Associate Dean for Graduate Education, CCAPS and typically teach on a semester basis to teach at least one course per academic year. Courses may be offered in face-to-face, online, or hybrid formats.
As a growing program, ACL has a need for additional instructional staff to offer coursework in topics that include current trends in the arts and cultural sector, cross-sector collaboration, and arts entrepreneurship.

Revise course or provide input as appropriate to stay abreast of discipline practices and trends, and to support changes in the disciplinary goals and curricula.
Stay current in the discipline and participate in activities to support professional development, faculty community dialog, self-assessment, and teaching reviews.
Be responsive to student communication as needed
Work with the Director of Graduate Studies and program staff as needed to resolve course- or student-related situations that require support or resources outside the classroom.
