part-time lecturers

Part-time lecturers are educators hired to teach courses on a temporary or irregular basis, often without the long-term commitment of full-time faculty. They typically have specific expertise in a subject and work fewer hours, usually on a per-course basis. Their roles may include delivering lectures, grading, and providing student support, but they generally do not participate in administrative duties or departmental responsibilities. Part-time lecturers allow institutions to offer specialized courses flexibly and cost-effectively, accommodating fluctuating enrollment and staffing needs without the commitments associated with full-time employment.
