Call for Teaching Portfolios for Visiting Lecturer Positions in the Near Future

 

Rolling deadline

 

The Department of Gender Studies at the Central European University in Budapest, Hungary invites teaching portfolios from gender studies scholars in any area of social science and humanities who wish to be considered for several teaching openings we anticipate in the coming years in our MA and PhD programs. These positions are likely to be on a one-course basis but might also cover multiple courses if portfolios and teaching needs coincide well. Courses in Gender Studies at CEU cover a broad array of topics from various disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives. Teaching generally takes place in the Fall (mid September to early December) and Winter (early January to the end of March) in 12 week terms. Courses are taught in two forms: one 100 minute class per week (2 credits/4 ECTS) or twice per week (4 credits/8 ECTS). Remuneration will be commensurate with experience, within budgetary limits and subject to Hungarian taxation. Classes are taught seminar style in groups generally ranging from 12 to 20 students. Critical reading, writing, and original research are emphasized.
