Salary commensurate with education and experience.
The Department of Romance Languages at Williams College seeks to fill a two-semester visiting faculty position in Spanish for the Fall of 2026 and Spring of 2027 to teach four courses; most likely two in language, and two content courses on Latin-American literature/culture to be determined in consultation with the successful applicant.
Our program is founded on close student-faculty interaction and strong mentoring, as well as vibrant scholarship. We provide visiting faculty with mentoring in teaching including participation in the college’s professional development program for new faculty (First3) and support through the Rice Center for Teaching.
Ph.D. preferred; native or near-native proficiency in Spanish is required. A passion for teaching is a must, as is a desire to work effectively, both inside and outside of the classroom, with a student population that is broadly diverse in every way. The successful candidate will have significant language teaching experience, and innovative ideas for upper-level courses in Spanish.
Applications should include: CV, cover letter, and three reference letters. In your cover letter, please include a statement regarding your commitment to working with a student population that is broadly diverse. All materials should be addressed to Leyla Rouhi, Chair, Department of Romance Languages, and must be submitted through Interfolio. Email applications will not be accepted.
Application deadline: February 20, 2026. The search committee plans to conduct online video interviews with 8-10 semi-finalists in late February and mid March.
