Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian Language and Culture

Indiana University - Bloomington, IN

The Department of Slavic and East European Languages and Cultures at Indiana University, Bloomington, announces an opening for a lecturer position in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian language and culture, starting in Fall 2015. Initial three-year appointment, renewable annually.

The successful candidate should have native or near-native BCS, fluent English as well as BCS language teaching experience. Standard course load is three courses per semester, and while we anticipate language instruction to be the primary responsibility, the successful candidate should also be able to teach introductory courses in culture and literature. We expect the lecturer to take the lead in extracurricular BCS programming.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. or be ABD in a relevant field. Familiarity with the American university system is preferred. Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, CV, three letters of reference, three sample syllabi (two for language courses and one for a culture/literature course), and a list of extracurricular programming ideas to: https://indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/
