Through our programs in Child and Adolescent Development, Deaf Studies, and Undergraduate GE and Education courses, our mission is to improve the quality of life for children, families, and the community. Our faculty seek to promote academic success in a diverse student population. Our students develop competencies related to their academic and professional lives, becoming responsible advocates for children and families through sound academic preparation in their major field of study. The branch is committed to advancing the campus-wide commitment to antiracism and inclusion. As an anchor institution within the diverse Sacramento region, we prepare individuals to be agents of change, committed to social justice, equity, and inclusion in culturally and linguistically diverse schools and communities. We have periodic openings for part-time lecturers to teach undergraduate courses in the following areas: Child and Adolescent Development , including lower and upper division courses in social, cognitive, and language development, sociocultural and historical contexts of development, qualitative and quantitative methods, specialized courses in policy and brain development, and fieldwork/service learning courses.

Duties of a part-time lecturer include instruction, class preparation, grading, and office hours. Other duties may be assigned based on departmental needs. Course assignments, including dates, time, and modality, are made by the Department Chair under the direction of the College Dean. Part-time lecturers are instructional faculty with conditional appointments based on enrollment and budget. Hires from the pool of applicants are made when there are instructional needs to fill coursework offered by an academic department based on changing enrollment patterns, changes to tenure-track faculty assignments, and other factors that cannot be addressed with our existing faculty. Initial appointments are typically for one semester, but occasionally academic year initial appointments are made. Appointments may be renewed based on department needs, funding, and performance. Often appointments are made just prior to the start of the semester. Rank and Salary Initial rank and salary for lecturer faculty are based on professional experience and educational background and are determined by the hiring department. Most new lecturers are hired at the Lecturer A or B rank. As of July 2024, the classification salary ranges for the respective ranks are: The salary ranges indicated are based on a "full‑time rate" (15 weighted teaching units [WTUs]).
