To thrive as a Part Time Professor, you generally need an advanced degree in your field, subject matter expertise, and relevant teaching or industry experience. Familiarity with learning management systems (LMS), virtual classroom platforms, and digital grading tools is typically required. Strong communication, organization, and adaptability help foster student engagement and manage diverse classroom environments. These skills and qualities are crucial for delivering effective instruction and supporting student success in a flexible, often varied academic schedule.

Is it worth being a part time professor?

Part time professors can gain teaching experience, flexible schedules, and supplemental income, making the role valuable for those seeking to enter academia or balance other commitments. However, they often receive lower pay and fewer benefits compared to full-time faculty. The job's worth depends on individual career goals and financial needs.

AspectPart Time ProfessorAdjunct Professor
CredentialsMaster's or Doctorate in relevant fieldMaster's or Doctorate in relevant field
Work EnvironmentTeaching at colleges or universities, often with some administrative dutiesTeaching courses on a contractual basis, usually at colleges or universities
Employment TypePart-time, often with ongoing or semester-based contractsPart-time, typically course-by-course or semester-by-semester basis
Usage in IndustryCommonly used in higher education institutionsWidely used in academia for course instruction without full-time employment

Both Part Time Professors and Adjunct Professors typically hold similar credentials and work in higher education. The main difference lies in terminology and contractual arrangements, with Part Time Professors often having a broader role that may include administrative tasks, while Adjunct Professors usually focus solely on teaching on a contractual basis.

What is a part time professor?

Part time professors, also known as adjunct professors, are educators who teach at colleges or universities on a contractual, non-full-time basis. They typically teach one or more courses per semester but are not considered permanent faculty members. Part time professors often have other professional commitments and may work at multiple institutions. Their primary responsibilities include preparing and delivering lectures, grading assignments, and holding office hours for students. While their roles are similar to full-time professors in the classroom, they usually have fewer administrative or research duties.

How does a part time professor typically balance teaching responsibilities with other professional or academic commitments?

Part-time professors often juggle teaching with other roles such as research, consulting, or industry work. This requires strong time management skills and clear communication with department heads to coordinate class schedules and office hours. While the workload may be lighter than that of full-time faculty, part-time professors are expected to deliver the same quality instruction and student support. Collaboration with other faculty and participation in department meetings may be limited, but staying connected helps ensure alignment with curriculum standards and fosters a supportive teaching environment.

Assistant Teaching Professor

University of Alberta

Camrose, AB • On-site

Part-time

Re-posted 7 days ago

Job description

While this position welcomes applications from individuals external to the university, current Academic Teaching Staff are first notified of available positions and will receive first consideration in accordance with the terms of the Academic Teaching Staff Agreement before considering external candidates for positions with a term 8 months or longer. Please login to verify your internal candidate status.

This is a part-time position with an expected end date of June 30, 2028 with possibility of extension subject to funding availability.

Location - This role is in-person at Augustana Camrose.

We are seeking an experienced speech-language pathologist for an Assistant Teaching Professor Stream (ATS) position at our MScSLP Augustana satellite program in Camrose, Alberta. This position will primarily incorporate clinic-related responsibilities, including direct clinical services and MScSLP student supervision, and may also offer opportunity for classroom-related teaching responsibilities as outlined below. This position is located in person at the Augustana Campus in Camrose. There is some flexibility in the FTE: We are looking to fill a total FTE of 0.8 - 1.0, to be filled either in a single position, or 2 smaller FTE positions.

In September 2024, a cohort of 16 MScSLP students (along with 16 MScPT and 16 MScOT students) embarked on their education at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus in Camrose. As such, across the three programs (OT, PT, SLP), there are currently 96 students who are in their first or second years of their respective programs in Camrose.

Part of our expansion to the Augustana satellite is to create an interdisciplinary (OT, PT, SLP) teaching clinic, with an anticipated opening date in the summer of 2026. This position will be primarily situated in that clinic. We currently have three CSD team members situated at our Augustana Campus: one full-time Satellite Coordinator & Assistant Teaching Professor, one full-time Assistant Teaching Professor, and one 0.3 FTE Assistant Teaching Professor. We also have two additional shared staff, including a full-time Program Assistant and Satellite Coordinator, as well as regular interaction with our Augustana-based colleagues in the MScPT and MScOT programs.

Students at our Augustana campus engage in their education through a distributed learning model. Most courses are coordinated with lead instruction from the main campus in Edmonton and delivered via a synchronous distributed learning model (Zoom platform) and/or in person instructor based on the needs and learning activities within each course. Onsite instructors at the satellite are crucial to engage with students in-person to facilitate discussion and applied activities of classes delivered primarily from another site, and for some direct teaching of experiential labs and Integration and Application grouping courses at the satellite site. The interdisciplinary teaching clinic is anticipated to involve a blend of onsite/in-person clinical roles, local community roles, as well as virtual therapy targeted at rural/rural remote locations in Alberta. 

The University of Alberta, its buildings, labs and research stations are primarily located on the territory of Nehiyaw (Cree), Niitsitapi (Blackfoot), Metis, Nakoda (Stoney), Dene, Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) and Anishinaabe (Ojibway/Saulteaux), lands that are now known as part of Treaties 6, 7 and 8 and homeland of the Metis. The University of Alberta respects the sovereignty, lands, histories, languages, knowledge systems and cultures of all First Nations, Metis, and Inuit.

The University of Alberta is a community of knowledge seekers, change makers and world shapers who lead with purpose each and every day. We are home to over 14,000 faculty and staff, more than 40,000 students and a growing community of 300,000 alumni worldwide.

Your work will have a meaningful influence on a fascinating cross-section of people - from our students and community members, to our renowned researchers and innovators, making discoveries and generating solutions that make the world healthier, safer, stronger and more just. Learn more.

At the University of Alberta, we are committed to creating an inclusive and accessible hiring process for all candidates. If you require accommodations to participate in the interview process, please let us know at the time of booking your interview and we will make every effort to accommodate your needs.

We thank all applicants for their interest; however, only those individuals selected for an interview will be contacted.
