Required Academic Qualifications and Skills: The required minimum qualification is an MA in French or Applied Linguistics. However, a PhD in French or Applied Linguistics will normally count as a superior qualification. For degrees in French, given the nature of our French language program, a degree specialization in language pedagogy or applied linguistics will normally be considered as more relevant to the position than a degree in formal linguistics or literary and/or cultural studies. A desired qualification is experience developing curricular content and assessment tools. Native or near-native fluency and excellent written skills in French are required. Candidates should also possess a strong written and spoken knowledge of English (the working language at Carleton University). The required teaching experience is specified for each course below.
Teaching Competence: Relevant university experience in teaching advanced writing skills is required.
Application Procedures and Deadlines:
All applicants must apply to the Department Head in writing and in relation to each course for which they wish to be considered by June 21st, 2019.
