Edmond, United States Oklahoma Christian University Full time
Position: Communication Adjunct Location: Edmond, OK
Job Id: 237 # of Openings: 1 Communication Adjunct OC Mission and Purpose: Oklahoma Christian University is a higher learning community transforming lives for Christian faith, scholarship, and service. OC is committed to hiring employees actively engaged in Christian discipleship as we strive to create an employment culture that encourages faculty and staff to lean into the university’s Christian mission, emphasizing authenticity and unity, not uniformity. We encourage you to explore our beliefs to determine if our mission is your calling. Oklahoma Christian University invites applications for adjunct faculty positions in several disciplines and assignments to courses for delivery through various modalities, including on-campus and online. Required qualifications vary from department to department, but a discipline-related master's degree or a combination of education and relevant professional experience are generally required. Candidates with terminal degrees and other specialized training are also highly desired. Adjunct appointments are part-time (typically one or two courses) and made on a semester-by-semester basis but often result in recurring assignments within a regular course rotation. Adjunct openings frequently occur with short notice, so the Oklahoma Christian Human Resources office accepts adjunct applications at all times. This is an on-campus, in-person position. The Communication Department is seeking adjuncts to teach courses in Oral Communication during the fall and spring semesters. Primary Qualifications:
  • A Master's and/or Doctorate in an appropriate discipline and higher education teaching experience is required.
  • Demonstrated commitment to diversity and the ability to communicate and positively engage students and colleagues across racial, gender, and cultural barriers
  • Higher education teaching experience is strongly preferred
  • The successful candidate must be an active member of a local church
  • Must be available for morning, afternoon, and/or evening sessions as assigned
  • Must be able to communicate verbally and in writing with clear, grammatically correct English
  • Requires interaction with supervisors, colleagues, and students, using tact, discretion, and independent judgment.
Teaching Responsibilities:
  • Work will be performed in an office and classroom environment with a significant amount of public contact, in person, by telephone, and via email.
  • Ability to teach with ample real-world experience.
  • Ability to show confidence in teaching and to present to a class.
  • Technologically savvy: Must demonstrate proficiency in Google Suite or Microsoft Office (MS Word, PowerPoint, and Excel), email, online learning systems (Blackboard, Moodle, etc.), and other ways to communicate with students.
  • Passionate about specific academic fields and education in general
  • A clear understanding of curriculum design, pedagogy, and learning outcome alignment
  • Performance of the job requires creativity, initiative, and effective problem-solving.
  • An incumbent must use tact and diplomacy. Following school standards, proper attendance or leave policies and other work- habits concerns are required.
  • Responsible for planning lessons, developing assignments and activities, grading and returning student work, and holding classes as scheduled by the University.
  • Additional duties include organizing office hours, answering emails promptly, administering course evaluations, and meeting College of Liberal Arts and Communication Department deadlines.
Salary and Benefits:
