Lecturer cover letter that wins interviews

A complete, ready-to-adapt Lecturer cover letter with the phrasing and structure that hiring managers respond to.

Dear Search Committee,

I'm writing to apply for the Lecturer position in your Department of Computer Science. The department's commitment to project-based teaching and undergraduate research is exactly the environment I want to contribute to.

I hold a PhD in Computer Science and have taught 8 different courses over the past 5 years, with consistent student evaluations above 4.6/5. My research on ML interpretability has produced 3 peer-reviewed publications and active collaborations with 2 industry partners.

I'm particularly excited about the chance to develop a new elective on responsible AI — an area where I've been building course materials for the past year.

Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,
Your Name
