The department is seeking qualified applicants for sessional lecture and lab instructor positions for the 2024-2025 academic year. Applicants should have successful teaching experience at the undergraduate level and communicate effectively with students both in and out of the classroom. A number of courses may be available (depending on budget and enrolments), involving first year physics lectures and/or labs in the subject areas of mechanics, optics, thermodynamics, waves, fluids, and electromagnetism.

For more information on these courses (or any others offered by the Department), please see UFV's online course calendar: (https://www.ufv.ca/calendar/current/CourseDescriptions/PHYS.htm ).

Qualifications:
Minimum requirements for a sessional lecturer are an MSc (PhD preferred) in physics, engineering, or related field, and a demonstrated excellence in teaching. Minimum requirements for a sessional lab instructor are a BSc (MSc or above preferred) in physics, engineering, or a related field, as well as demonstrated excellence in teaching.

Qualified applicants should submit the below through the online application portal:
a cover letter indicating whether they are interested in teaching lectures, labs, or both; a curriculum vitae; and recent teaching evaluations which include student feedback on courses taught.
Shortlisted candidates will be required to provide the names and contact information of three references.

The Selection Advisory Committee will begin reviewing applications soon after the closing date; however, the position will remain open until filled. Only short-listed candidates will be contacted, and those candidates will be required to deliver a short presentation as part of the interview process.
