Visiting Professor (NUS LAW)

Job Description

We welcome applications for visitors to teach at NUS Law in Singapore for our academic year 2027-28.

Teaching commitments

Courses are run in an “intensive” format. Each course comprises a total of 27 contact hours, to be taught in 3-hour seminars, 3 times per week for 3 weeks. Classes are generally held on weekdays and some may be held in the evening. As classes are conducted face-to-face, visitors must travel to Singapore and attend NUS’s Kent Ridge campus.

Visitors can choose from one of the following teaching periods:

• The last three weeks of August 2027 (9-27 August 2027).
• The first three weeks of September 2027 (1–17 September 2027).
• The last three weeks of January 2028 (10-28 January 2028).
• The first three weeks of February 2028 (2-21 February 2028).

We expect visitors to be available to teach over the whole of the chosen teaching period.

Honorarium

An all-inclusive honorarium of a minimum of SGD 23,000 will be provided, out of which visitors will cover their own airfare and accommodation expenses.

Other information

Proposed courses should not duplicate or overlap significantly with other courses offered at NUS Law in the same year. Visitors are expected to submit all reading materials (e.g. cases and articles) in electronic format (either .doc or .pdf format) for uploading to the intranet and dissemination to students. No printed materials will be distributed to students. Students are also not expected to purchase any books for these intensive courses.

How to apply

Please submit your application by 1 August 2026. Include in your email your course proposal and preferred teaching periods (nominating more than one period is helpful). Your course proposal should clearly detail learning outcomes and content that will be covered in each seminar.

The Faculty Curriculum Committee will make a decision around November 2026.
