Adjunct Lecturer in Law - LLM Legal Writing

University of Southern California
$32,000 - $53,827 a year
Los Angeles County, California
4 weeks ago

USC Gould School of Law is seeking part-time lecturers to teach LLM Legal Writing (LAW 511a), a two-unit legal writing course for international LL.M. students.

The semester-long course covers objective legal analysis and writing. The classes are 50 minutes and meet on campus on Tuesdays and Thursdays at either 8 a.m., 9 a.m., or 4 p.m.

Legal writing professors are expected to devote significant time to providing detailed feedback on assignments. Candidates must have a JD, at least five years of experience practicing law, and a high level of skill in legal writing. Prior teaching experience is preferred.

USC reserves the “Adjunct” appointment for faculty teaching less than full-time at USC, who are employed full-time in a primary profession or career elsewhere. Adjunct faculty typically teach only one course per year but, in exceptional cases, may teach one course per semester, if approved by the dean.

To ensure compliance with federal, state or local regulatory requirements as well as university policy and procedures, Adjunct Lecturers are required to complete specific training requirements as a condition of employment. Adjuncts Lecturers must complete mandated training by a required deadline. Failure to do so may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination, in accordance with the Faculty Handbook. Trainings that are required for all faculty and staff include USC’s Harassment Prevention Training at the time of hire and every two years thereafter, USC’s Integrity and Accountability Code Training at the time of hire, Information Security training annually, and Workplace Violence Prevention Plan training annually. A variety of other trainings may be required based on specific job responsibilities.

The base salary range for this position is $2,376 - $9,754 per semester. When extending an offer of employment, the University of Southern California considers factors such as (but not limited to) the scope and responsibilities of the position, the number of units per course, the candidate’s work experience, education/training, key skills, internal peer equity, federal, state and local laws, contractual stipulations, grant funding, as well as external market and organizational considerations.

The Gould School of Law (Gould) considers candidates that demonstrate, through ideas, words and actions, a strong commitment to USC’s Unifying Values (link). Gould holds a unique position in society, and within the university, as every aspect of these principles are influenced by and can be protected through legal rules and institutions. At Gould, we are proudly committed to maintaining a community in which each person respects the rights of others to live, work, and learn in peace and dignity, to be proud of who and what they are, and to have equal opportunity to realize their full potential as individuals and members of society.
