This does not constitute a posting for vacancies but establishes a pool of instructors if such openings occur during the 2026/27 academic year. Applicants may be selected from this pool on an as-needed basis throughout the academic year.

Teaching may be for day or evening courses, and primarily will be for in-person instruction. Appointments may or may not be renewable based on need, funding, and performance. Courses are primarily introductory undergraduate courses.

Prepare for and teach classes in ways that best help students to learn
Create Canvas course sites and syllabi that conform to department and University policies
Stay current regarding the professional body of knowledge in field of practice
Hold regular office hours that are clearly announced in advance
Respond to student needs and questions professionally and in a timely manner
Evaluate student learning and assign grades
Communicate instructor evaluation process to students
Respond to department and University emails in a timely manner
Follow all relevant University policies and procedures and participate in trainings, as required
Participate in relevant departmental meetings
Submit annual review materials

The Department of English serves approximately 400 majors and thousands of University of Minnesota undergraduate students. The teaching, scholarship and other creative work of the English faculty covers a broad range that includes literature, language, creative writing, literacy and rhetorical studies, linguistics and cultural inquiry, as well as the theories and documents that inform and critique these disciplines. For additional information, please see our website at http://english.cla.umn.edu/ .
