The Comprehensive Studies Program (CSP) in the College of Literature, Science and the Arts at the University of Michigan invites applications for a one-term lecturer position for the 2025 summer half-term as part of the 2025 CSP Summer Bridge Scholars Program. Successful candidates will teach one section of CSP 103,  which serves as an introduction to the rigorous mathematical reasoning required at the University of Michigan. These 3 credit courses will meet in person for two hours, three days per week. All sections of the course will meet on MWF, but teaching times will vary depending on the section to which the instructor is assigned. 

All faculty teaching sections of CSP 103/104 are also paired with a course assistant, who will attend class and lead evening workshops to support students both in attaining content mastery and in acquiring broader intellectual skills in quantitative reasoning and beyond.

Successful candidates will:

  • Share the CSP Math faculty's student-centered, compassionate, and humanistic teaching approach and organize their classrooms as spaces of active, collaborative learning where rigor is balanced with support. 
  • Demonstrate the ability to teach lower-division applied Pre-Calculus courses
  • Balance academic rigor with support 
  • Devote extra time and effort to students outside class via additional office hours for individualized instruction (conferences)
  • Provide students with regular, meaningful feedback on assignments 
  • Provide feedback to CSP Academic Advisors regarding student academic progress. 

    • Relevant teaching experience and qualifications, including demonstrated evidence of outstanding teaching will determine the selection of a candidate. 

    Successful applicants must be qualified, both in content mastery and teaching experience, to teach concept-and-application-based precalculus and hold at least a bachelor degree in mathematics or related discipline. Faculty must demonstrate a commitment to meeting students where they are, and helping students feel valued  and supported in their learning.

    Master degree (or higher) in Mathematics, and at least 3-years of experience teaching at the college level is highly desired. 

    This position is covered under the collective bargaining agreement between the U-M and the Lecturers Employee Organization, AFL-CIO, which contains and settles all matters with respect to wages, benefits, hours and other terms and conditions of employment.

    Questions about applying for this position can be e-mailed to csp-hiring@umich.edu.

    Application review will begin on April 24 and will continue until the positions are filled.

    LEO job openings are posted for a minimum of ten calendar days. This job may be removed from posting boards and filled any time after the minimum posting period has ended.
