Position Type: 
Fixed Term (Fixed Term) 
 
Salary Range: 
 
The salary range for this position is $80,008 to $88,883, depending on the successful candidate's years of teaching experience at the college level. The position comes with generous benefits (scu.edu/hr/benefits), including medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, and University contributions toward retirement. The University also provides rental assistance, for which Assistant Teaching Professors are eligible, to ease the transition into the local housing market. 
 
Purpose: 
 
The department of English at Santa Clara University (SCU), a Jesuit, Catholic university, invites applications for a full-time, renewable, non-tenure track faculty position at the rank of Assistant Teaching Professor to teach Core writing classes. SCU is a welcoming and inclusive community of teaching scholars whose work is grounded in the university's fundamental values. Those values, which include academic excellence, social justice, and community engagement, are infused with a culture of care that defines our community-upholding the dignity of all. The university draws on the many resources of the greater Bay Area, including Silicon Valley, where we are located.
 
 
The Department seeks a faculty member who will teach lower and upper division core writing courses, primarily Critical Thinking and Writing (Santa Clara's 2-quarter first-year writing sequence) and Advanced Writing. Past research experience related to writing studies and/or composition pedagogy required. 
 
The successful candidate will start on September 1, 2026. This is primarily a teaching position (70%), but the successful candidate will be expected to also engage in professional activity (15%), and do service (15%) for the department, college, and university. SCU is on the quarter system, and the expected teaching load is seven undergraduate courses over three academic quarters (Fall, Winter, and Spring). Assistant Teaching Professors are appointed for an initial term of three years. Reappointment to subsequent terms of three years depends upon the availability of funds, persistent programmatic need, and superior teaching, service, and professional activity. Promotion to Associate Teaching Professor and then Teaching Professor is possible under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
 
 
As with most of the departments in the College of Arts and Sciences, the English Department is strictly an undergraduate program. Experience working with diverse groups of students is valued. 
 
Required Qualifications 
<ul><li>
PhD in Rhetoric &amp; Composition, Writing Studies, English, or a related field. Degree must be in hand prior to start date of September 1, 2026.

Teaching Professors at SCU are expected to balance teaching, professional activity, and service. This is an in-person position. More specifically, duties include but are not limited to the following: 
 
Teaching and Advising
 
 
Teach lower- and upper-division courses in the major and university core curriculum, as assigned by the chair, including courses such as critical thinking &amp; writing, advanced writing, and/or engineering communications. SCU is on the quarter system and an Assistant Teaching Professor will typically teach two courses in two quarters and three courses in the third. High-quality teaching is prioritized at SCU; therefore, significant faculty-student interaction is expected. The university offers many different opportunities to develop teaching skills through Faculty Development, including regular lunchtime workshops on pedagogy, teaching and technology grants, communities of practice, teaching mentors, and a scholarship of teaching and learning faculty group. 
<ul><li>
Teaching a standard load of seven sections of undergraduate writing courses. Specific courses will be determined by programmatic need and will primarily include Critical Thinking &amp; Writing and/or Advanced Writing.

Teaching will be evaluated according to the Teaching Effectiveness Standards and Evaluation (TESE) document developed by each department.

At Santa Clara University we define effectiveness in teaching as respectful, challenging, inclusive, engaging, and evidence based. Teaching Expectations and Academic Policies at SCU can be found here.
