Faculty Instructor, Japanese Language, Full-time (CET Academic Programs, Osaka, Japan)

Position Overview

Course faculty are expected to take full ownership of their course, with direction from the program’s Academic Director as needed.  Faculty are expected to deliver the course according to the highest academic standards, to provide a stimulating and inclusive intellectual environment, and to adhere to CET’s academic policies. In addition – and importantly, given that this is a study abroad program – faculty are asked to make concrete connections between the academic content of the course and Japan as context.  This is a primary academic goal for CET as an organization, and a central metric around which course feedback is designed.
