    Position description

    The School of Journalism at the University of California, Berkeley is accepting applications for qualified temporary, part-time instructors to teach both during the regular academic-year year and in our Summer Minor program. Applicants will be reviewed for positions as needs arise. As a professional school, the School of Journalism is seeking practitioners to bring real-world experience to the classroom. Among the needs we generally have, we are often seeking practitioners with skills in:

    - News writing and reporting, either in daily reporting or long-form narrative writing.
    - Video news, including documentary filmmaking or short form video storytelling.
    - Audio news, including podcasting, radio reporting, audio editing or sound design.
    - Multimedia storytelling, including visual design, audience engagement, social media, emerging story forms like VR/AR, and mobile platforms.
    - Data journalism, including data visualization, data coding (Python or R), spreadsheets, public records, and similar tools used for data-driven stories.
    - Topical expertise, including but not limited to climate change, science, politics, business, race and inequality, investigative reporting, or other topical expertise.

    We are interested in candidates who express strong commitments to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging and justice. Instructors will be offered pedagogical training on inclusive teaching practices to ensure their teaching materials come from the widest range of perspectives along race, gender identity, socioeconomics, and geography.

    Appointments for primary instructors will be made in the Lecturer title. Time commitments vary depending on the class, but are typically one day a week of teaching for two or three hours. Other duties include ancillary responsibilities like holding office hours, assigning grades, attending appropriate meetings / orientations, advising students, preparing course materials syllabus), and maintaining a course website. Candidates may also be considered for hourly appointments as Teacher-Special Programs (TSP). TSPs teach a narrow subject as part of another course, or assist courses in other ways. Time commitments for TSPs vary, and in most cases are only for a limited period of the semester.

    Unless otherwise noted, it should be expected that classes will be held in-person so candidates will be required in most cases to physically teach at UC Berkeley campus. Please refer to our supplemental job ad for any limited remote-teaching opportunities.
