course. SFBU's mission is to offer inclusive, innovative, and inspirational education for lifelong careers, and our vision is to set the standard as a national model of higher education in service of the common good.
At SFBU, students come first. We prioritize students' needs by fostering personal engagement among students, faculty, and staff. We are committed to providing affordable, quality education with a deep commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice.
We encourage you to learn more about SFBU by reviewing our strategic plan at ************************************
Position Overview:
San Francisco Bay University (SFBU) invites applications for the position of Adjunct Faculty to teach the course How to Design Your Life: A Journey Through Personal Epistemology within the General Education Curriculum. This course combines design thinking methodology with epistemological reflection to help students examine how they know what they know, identify the social, cultural, and personal influences shaping their understanding, and design experiments to improve their experiences in key life domains, such as health, relationships, play, growth, career, and finances. We are seeking educators with experience in both design thinking and reflective pedagogy who can guide students through applied inquiry and iterative design as a means of personal and academic development.
This is a part-time, semester-long position physically based in Fremont, CA. The course is delivered in person, so the instructor will be required to teach on-site at the SFBU campus during weekday hours.
Course Description:
This course empowers you to become the architect of your own life by critically examining the beliefs, values, and assumptions that shape your choices. You will reflect deeply on how your worldview is influenced by factors such as family, culture, education, media, and lived experience. Through guided self-inquiry and practical exercises, you'll clarify your understanding of what success, meaning, and purpose look like in your life.
You'll explore eight essential life domains: physical health, mental health, spiritual health, relationships, finances, play, growth, and career. In each domain, you will design and conduct mini experiments to discover what genuinely supports your well-being, growth, and fulfillment.
Applying design thinking principles, including empathy, ideation, prototyping, and iteration, you'll develop strategies to navigate life's challenges with creativity, resilience, and intention. The course culminates in the creation of a personalized, balanced, and evolving four-year life plan that integrates your insights across all life domains.
Throughout the course, you will strengthen critical thinking and analytical skills, enabling you to thoughtfully engage with diverse perspectives and make informed decisions as you intentionally design your future at SFBU and beyond.
Teaching Excellence:
Candidates should possess deep subject knowledge in life design, pedagogical expertise, and the ability to engage students actively while adapting to their diverse needs. As we transition away from traditional lecture-based instruction, we seek faculty who understand and appreciate student-centered design and can adopt pedagogical practices stemming from this approach. These practices include active learning strategies, collaborative projects, problem-based learning, inquiry-based learning, flipped classroom models, and the use of formative assessments to inform and adjust teaching. We are looking for faculty with the skills and motivation to create a supportive and dynamic learning environment that emphasizes clear communication, collaboration, inclusivity, and continuous improvement. Faculty should be proficient in facilitating interactive discussions, promoting critical thinking, and guiding students to apply concepts to real-world scenarios. This approach aims to foster deeper understanding, engagement, and long-term retention of material among students.

Adjunct instructor job in San Francisco, CA
The following information is a template for the Job Advertisement and information will appear as submitted below. Edit the following information in red as needed before submitting for review and approval by Faculty Affairs.
The purpose of a job advertisement is to:
Describe the kind of person the department/school is looking for.
Communicate who the department/school is, its mission and how it aligns with the values of San Francisco State University and the greater community.
Introduction
We recommend starting with a paragraph that highlights the position as an exciting opportunity with a welcoming tone that connects the applicant to the University.
Include a section about the department-i.e. “who we are”.
We recommend highlighting the existing diversity present in the department and at the University. (See two samples for text).
Sample 1: The Department of Women and Gender Studies at San Francisco State University was founded in 1976, one of the first such departments in the United States. Forged out of transformative activism and scholarship, the department uses interdisciplinary approaches and foregrounds transnational and intersectional relationships among gender, race, sexuality, nation, labor, technologies, and globalization. Our students engage in challenging academics, work closely with professors, and lead community initiatives. We encourage intellectual collaborations within the department, as well as across the profession, and also support applications for internal and external funding to support research productivity.
Sample 2: The Latina/Latino Studies Department (originally Raza Studies) was established in the Fall of 1969, as part of the College of Ethnic Studies, after the longest student strike in the history of the United States. From November 1968 through April 1969 the Black Student Union, the Third World Liberation Front, select staff and faculty, and members from the larger Bay Area community, organized and led a series of actions against systematic discrimination. The College of Ethnic Studies was created as a response to the demands of students as well as community members who called for the creation of academic programs that address the experiences and histories of under-served communities in the San Francisco Bay Area. SF State's Latina/Latino Studies department is the first department of its kind on any four-year college campus.

Preferred qualifications: Add additional preferred qualifications.
The job ad and position description complement each other. Both should be posted on the department website as separate materials.
