FACULTY VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT

The New York City College of Technology of the City University of New York (CUNY), a comprehensive college offering associate and bachelor’s degree programs in downtown Brooklyn, invites applications for a full-time Lecturer position in Marketing Management and Sales in the Department of Business. The appointment is expected to begin in the 2026-2027 academic year.

This Lecturer position is a full-time appointment leading to a continuous certificate of employment. The faculty member will be expected to demonstrate a strong commitment to academic excellence, effective teaching, and meaningful service, and will contribute to the missions of the department, the college, and the university. Although this is a teaching-centered faculty appointment, the Lecturer will be encouraged to maintain ongoing scholarly and/or professional engagement that informs pedagogy, curriculum development, and academic currency.

The Department of Business is composed of full-time faculty who combine strong academic preparation with senior-level professional experience. Approximately 1,500 students are enrolled in the department’s academic programs, which include one baccalaureate degree and several associate-level degrees, including the Marketing Management and Sales (AAS) program. The Marketing Management and Sales AAS Program prepares students for careers in marketing, sales, entrepreneurship, and related business fields, while also supporting transfer to senior colleges. The curriculum emphasizes applied learning grounded in theory, international and cross-cultural perspectives, ethical and strategic decision-making, and the role of marketing and sales within the broader enterprise.

Reporting to the Chair of the Department of Business, the Lecturer will teach undergraduate-level courses, primarily within the Marketing Management and Sales AAS program, and may be assigned to teach in other Business Department programs as needed. Teaching modalities may include in-person, online, and hybrid formats, but the instructor should expect to spend substantial time physically on the campus.

• Foundations of Marketing and Sales
• Consumer Behavior
