Job Summary:
The Interdisciplinary Program in Organizational Studies in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts at the University of Michigan seeks applicants for a full time Lecturer III position to begin August 25, 2026. Organizational Studies is a small but growing selective undergraduate major in the arts and sciences. This is a non-tenure track position with a university year appointment. The initial appointment period will be four (4) years, and the appointment may be renewed (based on programmatic need, funding, and performance). The appointment is subject to final approval by the college.
Responsibilities:
Duties and responsibilities for this Lecturer III position are expected to include four undergraduate courses per year, including both lectures and seminars, as well as departmental service, including undergraduate advising and mentoring equivalent to a third class per semester, and service on appropriate committees. Candidates may also contribute to our core class rotation (micro-organizational behavior, macro-organizational theory, and research methods), depending on program needs and candidate background. A typical full-time (100% effort) load for a Lecturer III in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts is three courses per semester, or the equivalent in administrative and/or service duties.
Qualifications:
Qualified candidates will have a Ph.D. in a relevant social/behavioral science or professional discipline prior to the start date of the position and a range of instructional expertise. Candidates must be able to teach lower- and upper-level classes relevant to the study of organizations that are grounded in social/behavioral science and appeal to students looking to develop practical, transferable skills. Candidates must also be capable of teaching at least one and preferably two of our core classes (micro-organizational behavior, macro-organizational theory, and research methods). We especially welcome applicants prepared to teach Leadership and/or Negotiations. Excellence in teaching (including in larger classes), alignment with student demand, and potential in instructional service (including undergraduate advising and mentorship) will be the principal criteria used to select the successful candidate.
