Duties & Responsibilities

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.
  2. Hold one office hour (virtually or in-person) per week, per course taught.
  3. Grade all assignments and exams in a timely manner and post grades regularly to Canvas.
  4. Submit early alert notifications, midterm grades, and final grades according to school policy.

  6. Attend student success faculty meetings.
  7. Report to and regularly communicate with a course's lead instructor and the Director of First and Second Year Experiences to ensure a successful class experience.
This position is open to VCU employees and graduate students. Interested VCU employees must be in an active, FLSA-exempt position, and their participation requires approval from their primary role supervisor to hold a secondary assignment as an adjunct instructor. If an adjunct opportunity arises, only qualified applicants selected for an interview will be contacted.
