POSITION SUMMARY:

NSCC seeks a full-time, tenure-track Business Faculty and Program Coordinator for Business Early College Programs. The successful candidate will teach first- and second-year business courses primarily at Early College partner high schools and coordinate Business Early College programs, serving as a bridge between local high schools and the Business Department at the college. Teaching assignments will primarily include Introduction to Business and Computer Applications for Business, or Business Law, in Early College courses, as well as regular college-level (non-Early College) courses in these same subject areas, depending on the candidate's expertise.

Early College programs are intentionally designed to empower students traditionally underrepresented in higher education. MA Early College Designated Programs work to blend elements of high school and college to provide students with the opportunity to experience and complete college level academic coursework on a clearly articulated pathway and simultaneously gain exposure to a variety of career opportunities. Early college programs also reduce the time and expense of earning a college credential while increasing the likelihood of completion. https://www.mass.edu/strategic/earlycollege.asp
