Job Description
Muskegon Community College, an associate degree-granting
institution of higher education, is a center for lifelong learning
which provides a person the opportunity to attain their educational
goals by offering programs that respond to individual, community,
and global needs. We are seeking qualified candidates for Adjunct
Instructors.
The Adjunct Instructor Pools are for applicants who are interested
in teaching in the future as an (part-time) adjunct instructor for
one of our departments. The Instructor Pools are always open for
applications.
However, this does not mean that we have an
immediate opening in the division. The Adjunct Instructor Pools
function as a way for department chairs to view applicant materials
in advance of a need, and determine if the applicant will be
approved or not approved to be added to their pool of eligible
applicants. Should a part-time instructional need arise in a given
department, the department chair will look first at the approved
applicants to see if anyone matches our needs, in which case they
may make contact to schedule an interview.
UNOFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS MUST BE SUBMITTED WHEN
APPLYING.
