Position Summary:

Required Qualifications: Master's degree in a related field.

Supplemental Job Information

The College is seeking applicants to teach part-time for upcoming semesters. Applications will remain actively on file for one year. To be considered, applicants must have been awarded the qualifying degree and/or qualifying graduate semester hours. If you are selected for a screening interview for an adjunct faculty position, you must bring an official transcript(s) in a sealed envelope from the educational institution to the interview. Applicants with a qualifying degree from an educational institution outside the United States and Canada must submit a foreign credential evaluation from one of the members of the National Association of Credential Evaluations Services (website: www.naces.org).

Additional Documents Required

To complete your application, you must attach a copy of your graduate academic transcripts from a regionally accredited institution of higher education, showing attainment of at least the minimum qualifications. Do not send official transcripts to the College unless specifically asked to do so at a later date. You can scan your transcript(s) and attach to the application. If you cannot attach your transcripts, contact the Employment Office prior to the job close date (if applicable) and we will attach the document(s) for you. If the transcript does not reflect the awarding of the qualifying degree, or the attainment of the required graduate semester hours, attach written documentation from the educational institution showing when the degree was awarded or hours earned.

Pay Rate

Adjunct faculty is compensated at $76.00 per instructional load point (based on the number of assigned load points). No distinction is made for advanced degrees and pay is calculated based on actual classes taught (the load points).
