Job description

JOB TITLE
Adjunct Faculty-Off-Campus Advisor
LOCATION
Worcester
DEPARTMENT NAME
Integrative & Global Studies - JM
DIVISION NAME
Worcester Polytechnic Institute - WPI
JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY
Worcester Polytechnic Institute's Global School is seeking adjunct faculty to advise project teams as part of WPI's signature Global Projects Program. Successful candidates will receive a 2 month, destination specific appointment completed full-time onsite at a project center. Project center destinations include international and domestic locations around the world. This onsite position also requires part-time advising in the 2 months prior to departure (completed on-campus or remotely) as well as mandatory participation in advisor trainings.
These faculty positions are created to provide an available applicant pool for the program. Positions will be filled on an as needed basis. Start dates will vary by project center.
Qualified applicants will be contacted by the program. Your application will remain in the pool until the posting closes. If you wish to be considered for positions beyond that date, then you must reapply.
JOB DESCRIPTION
Advisors work with students completing the Interactive Qualifying Project (IQP) at WPI's project center destinations around the world. The IQP is one of the most distinctive elements of the WPI Plan and WPI's signature project-based curriculum. Unlike an academic course, this nine-credit-hour requirement involves students working in teams, with students not in their major, to tackle an issue that relates science, engineering, and technology to society.
Advisors guide students through their project experience while also providing student support onsite. Advisors are asked to lead onsite orientations, respond to emergencies, and assist project teams to resolve issues of group dynamics, sponsor relationships, or other issues that arise. These highly demanding positions require a significant amount of flexibility, self-initiative, and the ability to excel under challenging conditions while efficiently accomplishing tasks in a fast-paced environment.
An ideal applicant will hold an advanced degree in a related discipline with relevant practical, in addition to successful undergraduate or graduate teaching experience. Experience living or working abroad is also highly desired.
Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, cover letter, and names and contact information for three references. The cover letter should feature the candidate's relevant teaching experience and area(s) of scholarly interest.
Compensation: $3,000 per PQP and $12,000 Global Projects Program Advisor
FLSA STATUS
United States of America (Exempt)
WPI is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran status, or disability. It seeks individuals from all backgrounds and experiences who will contribute to a culture of creativity, collaboration, inclusion, problem solving, innovation, high performance, and change making. It is committed to maintaining a campus environment free of harassment and discrimination.
