A female teacher at a university, college, or another adult education institution. She gives lectures, seminars, and courses.

Our lecturer in medieval history has published a new book.
'Die Dozentin' (female lecturer) is the feminine form of 'der Dozent' (male lecturer). The suffix '-in' is used by default in German to form the feminine form of job titles.
Der Dozent und die Dozentin betreuen die Projektgruppe gemeinsam.
The male lecturer and the female lecturer are supervising the project group together.
The noun 'Dozentin' (lecturer) is closely related to the verb 'dozieren', which means 'to teach' or 'to give lectures' at university level.
Sie doziert im Fachbereich Kunstgeschichte.
She lectures in the art history department.
This word is used specifically for teachers at universities, colleges, or in adult education. A teacher at a school is not referred to as a 'Dozentin' (lecturer).
Sie arbeitet als Dozentin für Deutsch als Fremdsprache an der Universität.
She works as a lecturer for German as a foreign language at the university.
teacher
A Lehrerin and a Dozentin both teach and impart knowledge. Lehrerin is used especially for a teacher at a school, while Dozentin usually refers to a teacher at a university or in adult education. The main distinction is therefore the type of educational institution, although the areas can partly overlap.
Die Dozentin erklärt den Teilnehmern im Abendkurs die Grundlagen der Buchführung.
The lecturer explains the basics of bookkeeping to the participants in the evening course.
Die Lehrerin erklärt der Klasse die neuen Bruchrechenregeln.
The teacher explains the new rules for adding fractions to the class.
