Position Title:

Lecturer in Education MATTC

Position Type:

Fixed Term (Fixed Term)

Salary Range:

Salary range for 5-7 courses is $55,350-82,320 depending on the number of courses assigned and candidate’s college-level teaching experience. The position is benefits eligible.

Purpose:

The Department of Education at Santa Clara University, a Jesuit Catholic institution, seeks to hire one or more Academic Year Adjunct Lecturers in its Masters of Arts in Teaching and Teacher Credential (MATTC) teacher preparation program for the 2026-27 academic school year. The responsibilities of the Lecturer position will be equal to a teaching load of 5-9 courses over four academic quarters. This is a one year appointment only and will begin on September 1, 2026.

Four commitments ground the mission of the Department of Education: Cura personalis, or the care for and growth of the whole person, which informs not just how we teach our teachers, but also how we expect our teachers to engage their own K-12 students; social justice, or the pursuit of educational equity through the preparation of teachers who deliver culturally relevant and sustaining pedagogy that helps all students learn; transformation through the development of our students into equity-oriented teachers and agents of change; and diversity of faculty and students, who enrich K-12 schools, our teacher preparation program and scholarly research through their critical voices and perspectives. Our faculty have developed the MATTC program to embrace a more critical model of education focused on these commitments. The MATTC program also includes programs specialized for Catholic Education such as Catholic MATTC (CaTMAT) and ExCEL (Excellence in Catholic Education and Leadership). Our Department of Education endeavors to live out these commitments not only in its academic and scholarly pursuits, but especially in its K-12 school partnerships.

The MATTC program offers an in-person and an online option. For the in-person option, faculty teach courses at Santa Clara University’s main campus or online. Online classes include a mix of synchronous and asynchronous class time.

Required Qualifications

  • Earned a Master’s degree in teaching, education, or related field from an accredited university
  • Multiple years of experience as a TK-12 public school teacher
  • Strong commitments to public education

Preferred Qualifications

  • Earned a doctorate of education or a doctorate of philosophy from an accredited university
  • Experience as an instructor in teacher education at the university level
  • Experience in educational leadership, mentoring, or supervision of early career educators

Responsibilities Teaching (95%), Service (5%)

The position includes, but is not limited to, the following responsibilities:

Teaching constitutes the primary job responsibility and should incorporate 95% of the lecturer’s time. Teaching assignments will include some combination of the courses listed below, totaling 5-6 course sections across the yearlong appointment. Courses assignments can include both in-person and online programs to multiple and single subject candidates. Courses will be assigned based on experience and expertise; an individual candidate is not expected to be able to teach all courses, but rather a selection of the following courses.

Courses that we anticipate this individual will cover in the 2026-2027 academic year are:

  • EDUC 230/231B Practicum II (.66 CE)
  • EDUC 230/231C Practicum III (.66 CE)
  • EDUC 230/231D Practicum IV (.66 CE)
  • EDUC 265/296 Assessment (1 CE)
  • Placement Coordinator (2 CE)

In addition, we anticpate needing support with students pursuing a teaching credential in World Languages. As we continue to explore anticipated enrollment in this program, we may also need additional support teaching the following classes either as Independent Studies or as full courses. We will know more about enrollment projections in the coming months.

  • EDUC 286A/B World Language Methods A and B (CE TBD)

Service Responsibilities constitute approximately 5% of the lecturer’s time, and will include attending faculty and program meetings and supporting curricular development for courses taught. Additional service responsibilities may be assigned depending on experience.
