About the role

California State University San Marcos is accepting applications on an ongoing basis for our pool of part-time lecturers in the Music Department for the 2026/2027 academic year. Appointments may last from one day to a full semester, and this pool may be used to fill vacancies as needed across the campus. Applications apply to the current academic year and the pool closes May 31st each year, with next-year applications due when the new pool opens.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
