Profile

Lecturer in Law, Legal Analysis, Writing and Research
The candidate will teach one section of LAWR each semester in conjunction with the Law School's library and academic staff. Will be expected to prepare their own lesson plans and research and writing projects, and will collaborate with the other LAWR Faculty. The LAWR Program includes two required courses that are offered exclusively to first-year students and a third required course that is open only to second- and third-year students. Lecturers will teach either the first-year or upper-level LAWR courses during the academic year. Lecturers teaching in the second year may also be called upon to assist with the Law School's Academic Success program. Lecturers are also expected to contribute to the intellectual life of the school, will have the opportunity to serve on faculty committees and vote in Faculty meetings, and will be encouraged to pursue broader teaching and scholarly activities. Should have a J.D. degree and a strong law school and/or practice record demonstrating an outstanding level of accomplishment in legal research and writing, either during law school (for example, law review or success in moot court brief-writing competitions) or after (for example, judicial clerkships or law firm or other litigation writing experience). Prior experience teaching legal research and writing is preferred. Experience working with international students will be viewed favorably.

Application Deadline: June 1, 2020.
