Part-time Instructional Opportunities

The Department of Gender and Women's Studies at Western Michigan University occasionally seeks individuals to teach on a part-time basis. Experienced instructors as well as those with exceptional potential for success in the interdisciplinary study of women and gender are invited to submit applications. Applicants will be evaluated based on credentials and fit with departmental needs.

Applications may be submitted at any time; submission no later than March 15 is recommended for consideration to teach in the following academic year.

If you also wish to be considered for a teaching assistantship position, please complete the Teaching Assistant Application instead of this one and mark the box indicating your wish to be considered for both.
