Lecturer in Theatre / History & Dramaturgy

The School of Theatre at UNC Greensboro welcomes applications for a professional-track Lecturer in Theatre History and Dramaturgy beginning in the fall of 2024. We seek to diversify our faculty by inviting applications from committed teachers with experience in advancing equity and inclusion in their teaching.. Review of applications will begin December 1st, 2023, and continue until the position is filled.

Professional-track faculty at UNCG have the possibility for standing for promotion from Lecturer to Senior Lecturer after five years of service and then from Senior Lecture to Principal Lecturer after another five years of service. Each promotion comes with a base salary increase. Professional-Track Faculty can request, at the time of hire, that years of service in comparable appointments at one or more external institutions be recognized as service time at UNCG for purposes of meeting the five-year minimum period for promotion. This full-time faculty appointment is renewable and includes benefits. When the North Carolina state legislature approves cost-of-living increases for state employees, professional-track faculty receive the same cost-of-living increases as tenure-track faculty.
