  • Experimental College -- Visiting Lecturers Fall 2025
    School of Arts & Sciences: Experimental College
    Tufts University

    The Experimental College at Tufts University seeks Visiting Lecturers from a range of backgrounds and professions for the Fall 2025 semester. Our goal is to bring new topics and perspectives to Tufts. Applicants are asked to design and - if selected - teach small, discussion-based courses that promote active learning and that engage Tufts undergraduates in an exploration of ideas and experiences shaping the world today. We are looking for out-of-the-ordinary courses that also have broad appeal.


    Up to fifteen courses will be chosen from a very competitive pool. ExCollege courses are three-credit, letter-graded electives. Classes meet in the evening, once a week, for a total of 2.5 contact hours per week, over thirteen teaching weeks. Our courses are taught in a classroom setting on the Tufts Medford/Somerville campus. Fall 2025 courses will be offered in-person. Selected applicants may be asked to adjust their proposed syllabi as necessary to meet ExCollege and university guidelines.


    Stipend: $5,500.00 for the semester, whether taught individually or team-taught.


    The semester will begin on September 2, 2025. The last day of classes is December 8, 2025. 


     


    Qualifications


    Anyone who has some special expertise to offer Tufts undergraduates and has the ability to share that expertise effectively may apply.


    All offers of employment are contingent upon the completion of a background check.
