Summary:

The Division of Strategic Enrollment Management and Student Success (SEMSS) at Virginia Commonwealth University is expanding a pool of applicants for possible adjunct teaching positions. This pool will only be accessed if an adjunct opportunity arises to teach a student success course, a one-credit course for first-year undergraduate students. Qualified applicants will be invited to share their interests and/or qualifications in teaching various course topics. Course topics can be reviewed by clicking on the Department Website Link above.

Duties include:

  1. Teach at least one section of UNIV101, UNIV103, or UNIV191.

This position is open to VCU employees and graduate students.
