The Part-time Lecturer in Publishing is expected to teach and support students in publishing-related subjects, drawing on current industry knowledge and professional experience. Requirements typically include a relevant postgraduate qualification or strong equivalent expertise in publishing, media, communications, literature, or a related discipline; teaching or training experience is desirable. The successful candidate should be able to plan engaging lessons, prepare learning materials, assess student work, provide constructive feedback, and contribute to the academic objectives of the programme. Practical knowledge of publishing workflows, editing, digital publishing, production, or the commercial book and media environment would be valuable. Strong communication, organisation, reliability, and a commitment to high-quality student learning are expected.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major public research university located in Singapore. It is internationally recognised for strengths in engineering, technology, science, business, education, humanities, arts, and social sciences. NTU combines research-led teaching with strong links to industry, government, and global academic partners. Its Yunnan Garden campus is known for modern facilities, sustainability initiatives, and a diverse international community of students, faculty, and professional staff. The university supports undergraduate, postgraduate, and lifelong-learning programmes, with an emphasis on innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and practical impact. A part-time lecturer may work within a school or programme that values professional expertise alongside academic teaching, contributing specialist knowledge and helping students understand current practices in publishing and related creative industries.
Singapore offers opportunities in education, technology, finance, healthcare, logistics, tourism, media, and creative industries. English is widely used at work, while Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil reflect the country’s multicultural heritage. Life is safe, efficient, and convenient, with excellent public transport, healthcare, food, and digital services. Housing is costly, particularly near central districts, so many newcomers consider shared apartments or accommodation farther from the city centre. Singapore’s tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. Foreign professionals generally need an appropriate work pass, such as an Employment Pass, S Pass, or short-term work authorisation arranged by the employer; eligibility depends on salary, qualifications, and employment terms. Part-time academic roles may have specific pass requirements, so candidates should confirm these with NTU before accepting an offer. Relocation is straightforward but requires budgeting for rent, deposits, insurance, and initial living expenses.
