We are looking for an Adjunct Professor to join our academic team and contribute to the delivery of high-quality education at our institution. As an Adjunct Professor, you will be responsible for teaching undergraduate or graduate courses in your area of expertise on a part-time basis. This role is ideal for professionals who are passionate about education and wish to share their knowledge and experience with students while maintaining their primary career or other commitments.
Adjunct Professors play a critical role in enriching the academic environment by bringing real-world experience and specialized knowledge into the classroom. You will be expected to prepare and deliver lectures, create and grade assignments and exams, hold office hours, and provide academic support to students. You will also be required to stay current with developments in your field and incorporate relevant advancements into your teaching.
This position offers flexibility and the opportunity to work in a dynamic and intellectually stimulating environment. You will collaborate with full-time faculty and academic staff to ensure that course content aligns with departmental goals and learning outcomes. While this is a non-tenure track position, it provides a valuable opportunity to engage in higher education and make a meaningful impact on students’ academic and professional development.
We are seeking candidates who demonstrate a commitment to teaching excellence, possess strong communication skills, and have the ability to engage and inspire students. Prior teaching experience at the college level is preferred but not required.
