What is a remote faculty?

Remote faculty are educators who teach and support students from a location outside of the traditional on-campus setting, usually through online platforms. They deliver lectures, create course materials, assess student work, and communicate with students using digital tools such as learning management systems, video conferencing, and email. Remote faculty can work for colleges, universities, or other educational institutions and are expected to maintain the same academic standards as on-campus instructors, while offering flexibility and accessibility for both themselves and their students.
