About Western

Since 1878, Western University has been committed to serving our communities through the pursuit of academic excellence and by providing students, faculty, and community members with life-long opportunities for intellectual, social, and cultural growth. We seek excellent students, faculty, and staff to join us in what has become known as the "Western Experience" - an opportunity to contribute to a better world through the development of new knowledge, new abilities, new connections, and new ways to make a difference.

About Us

Western International College (WesternIC)

Western International College offers international students the opportunity to be fully prepared for university studies and to transition smoothly into degree programs at Western University. Our academic and co-curricular programming supports students in navigating their own pathway to success while adapting to a new academic environment.

Located on Western’s main campus, WesternIC was established by Navitas to deliver high-quality Year 1 undergraduate and pathway graduate programs for international students. Navitas is a global higher education provider specializing in programs that equip students with the skills and knowledge needed for success in Canadian post-secondary institutions. WesternIC welcomes students from around the world to complete their first year of undergraduate study or to begin selected Credit-Bearing Professional Master’s courses before progressing into their programs at Western University. All undergraduate and graduate courses delivered at WesternIC are Western University courses taught by instructors appointed by Western.

For more information, visit www.westernic.ca

Course Information

Course Delivery: All courses are delivered in-person using Moodle. Courses are taught in a single block, scheduled in the morning, afternoon or evening to accommodate students and instructors.

Course Information: Basic principles of machine learning (estimation, optimization, prediction, generalization, bias-variance trade-off, regularization) in the context of supervised (linear models, decision trees, deep neuronal networks) and unsupervised (clustering and dimensionality reduction) statistical learning techniques. The course emphasizes the ability to apply techniques to real data sets and critically evaluate their performance.

Responsibilities

You will be responsible for all activities associated with the successful delivery of the course, including but not limited to: developing, preparing, and delivering the course; setting and marking examinations, assessing the academic work of students, and reporting grades.

Candidates must be willing to undertake training as required by the Employer including, but not limited to, training in respect of health and safety, harassment and discrimination, and legislated service standards.

Qualifications

Unless otherwise noted, candidates must have a Master's degree, PhD preferred, and a demonstrated record of performance in teaching Marching Learning courses.

A demonstrated commitment to supporting international students as they transition into a new education system is required. This includes the development of strong relationships with international students. WesternIC instructors are part of a community focused on holistic student development and success, and should provide examples of how they have adapted their teaching practices to meet these students’ needs, bring enthusiasm for their discipline in the classroom and helping students understand and explore the programs available at Western.

These elements work together to create a student-centred culture grounded in high-quality teaching and learning.

Applicants must demonstrate (via teaching dossier and interview) demonstrated experience with best practices in course delivery and class management, including:

Using LMS tools to communicate effectively with students and build collaborative learning communities.
Providing timely and constructive feedback.
Responding to student inquiries promptly and referring appropriately to technical or student support services.
Supporting academic integrity in the creation and administration of assessments in an in person environment.

Prior teaching experience in the course at Western University is preferred.

Additional Requirements

The following expectations of Western IC instructors are essential to the quality of the student learning experience. Additional programming and supports may also be used to enhance these core elements:

Complete professional development on the history and philosophy of Navitas and on internationalizing the classroom. Full-day online training is provided by Navitas and is mandatory. (Navitas makes twelve further online modules available to instructors on a voluntary basis.)
Use the learning management systems, including the Student Portal and Moodle, for all academic purposes, regular and ongoing attendance tracking, and follow up on student concerns.
Understand and support the WesternIC model of single-block teaching: courses are taught in a single block, scheduled in the morning, afternoon or evening to accommodate students and instructors. This model supports relationship-building and the integration of key study skills which allows for varied teaching approaches and strong support for student learning.
Support international students holistically, both academically and through the challenges of adapting to life and study in Canada , with awareness of the resources available to students both through WesternIC and Western.
Receive and respond to feedback from Western and WesternIC supports and administrators.
Work closely and proactively with WesternIC student services to identify at-risk students, make referrals, and prioritize mental health support in culturally responsive ways.
Maintain strong relationships with the departmental coordinator to ensure quality assurance and alignment with Western University expectations.
Share important WesternIC academic and student experience updates with students, including information related to academics, socio-political events, transfer processes, and cultural transition.
Support WesternIC’s focus on academic integrity by spending time in class helping students understand Western’s Scholastic Offense Policy, expectations for academic honesty and the potential consequences of academic misconduct.
Respond to student communications in a timely manner through an intercultural lens, using WesternIC email and/or the learning management system.

Affirmation Policy

Western, like many postsecondary institutions in Canada, is moving beyond sole reliance upon Indigenous self-identification in its hiring processes. This is to safeguard against the use of incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information in circumstances in which a candidate has made a declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership. Candidates who are invited for an interview or who are short-listed, and who have made a declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership for material advantage at Western, including where required or preferred for the position, will be asked to have their declaration of Indigenous citizenship or membership affirmed through a relational accountability process, led by the Office of Indigenous Initiatives (OII), that is consistent with Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and doing. Please contact the OII directly for details on the affirmation processes: https://indigenous.uwo.ca/. The policy can be viewed at: POLICY 1.58 - Affirming Declarations of Indigenous Citizenship or Membership at Western University.

Applying at Western

In submitting your application, candidates should attach a curriculum vitae and evidence of successful teaching, together with the names and contact information of qualified individuals who could be contacted about their teaching experience and ability.

In accordance with the Faculty Collective Agreement, consideration of applicants will include an assessment of previous performance, experience, and qualifications, including qualifications which go beyond the requirements for the position. Applicants should have fluent written and oral communication skills in English.

Course offerings could be assigned to the workload of full-time faculty or to part-time faculty with seniority or preference rights in accordance with the Faculty Collective Agreement, or left unfilled based on operational/enrolment requirements. All positions are subject to budget approval.

Western Values Diversity

The University invites applications from all qualified individuals. Western is committed to employment equity and diversity in the workplace and welcomes applications from women, members of racialized groups/visible minorities, Indigenous persons, persons with disabilities, persons of any sexual orientation, and persons of any gender identity or gender expression.

Accommodations are available for applicants with disabilities throughout the recruitment process. If you require accommodations for interviews or other meetings, please contact Human Resources or phone 519-661-2194.

This position is an existing vacancy. Recent Western graduates who are foreign nationals may be eligible to work on campus. Please refer to the Citizenship and Immigration Canada website under Post-Graduation Employment at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/index.asp.
