Position: Chinese Language Lecturer
Description:
The Department of East Asian Studies invites applications for one or more positions as lecturer in Chinese language, expected to begin September 1, 2026, or during the 2026-2027 academic year. Positions that begin September 1 are expected to extend for one academic year. While duty time and appointment length will be based on student enrollments, we expect to fill at least one full-time position. Experience teaching Chinese at the college level is preferred. We seek candidates with a minimum requirement of a master's degree in disciplines such as Chinese linguistics, Chinese language pedagogy, Chinese history, Chinese literature, or related fields. Ph.D. is preferred. Applications must be submitted online at https://www.princeton.edu/acad-positions/position/40201 and should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, statement of teaching interest, contact information for three references, and a web link to a 30-50-minute video of the candidate's Chinese language teaching. Submission of a writing sample is optional (e.g., publications in Chinese or English, a dissertation chapter). Reference letters will be requested after a Zoom interview. Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until any available position is filled. Applications will be reviewed based on curricular need, and only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted. These positions are subject to the university background check policy. The work location for these positions is in-person on campus at Princeton University.
Expected Salary Range: $81,700-$86,000
