The Engineering & Mathematics Department of the School of Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) at the University of Washington Bothell (UWB) invites applications for short-term, temporary instructional positions that may be needed at various points throughout the 2025-26 academic year (Sept 16–Jun 15). The successful candidate(s) will be appointed as Lecturer Part‑Time Temporary, a non‑tenure track, non‑voting eligible faculty title.

We seek candidates with demonstrated expertise in signal processing and related areas (e.g., digital communications, statistical signal processing). Successful candidates will have a strong record of teaching effectiveness, a commitment to inclusive and student‑centered pedagogy, and the ability to work effectively with students from diverse backgrounds.

The successful candidate(s) will have an FTE commensurate with the assigned workload. For context, one 5‑credit course is equivalent to 33.33% FTE and one lab is 16.67% FTE. The full‑time (100%) base salary is $7,080 per month, commensurate with experience and qualifications, or as mandated by a U.S. Department of Labor prevailing wage determination. This full‑time monthly rate is then prorated based on the signed FTE for the duration of the 3‑month quarter.

Appointments are made on a quarterly (3‑month) basis that are renewable on a quarterly basis, and are contingent upon instructional needs, part‑time faculty reappointment guidelines, and Department approval. Appointment service dates align with the annual academic calendar: Autumn: September 16–December 15; Winter: December 16–March 15; Spring: March 16–June 15.

The cumulative instructional need currently for the 2025-26 Academic Year is as follows:
