The ability to design a thematic liberal arts style seminar according to CBLI
principles is a must.

In addition to course development and teaching, lecturers participate in
regular faculty development workshops throughout the academic year, contribute
to the program and university community through service, continue ongoing
research or practice in their academic or creative fields, and participate
actively in the intellectual life of NYU Shanghai. Appointments are for three
years effective August 1, 2018; contracts are renewable.

Review of applications will begin immediately for Fall 2018 appointments and

English in Shanghai, specific qualities you will bring to the program, and
