Faculty are essential to Liberty University’s mission of Training
Champions for Christ. It is expected that a faculty member
model a personal commitment to the goals and values of Liberty
University, engage in an active commitment to, and experience
of, personal spiritual formation within a biblically informed
Christian worldview. Faculty should view their teaching,
engagement with students, and scholarship as a means to a
significant educational end. They should strive to employ a
variety of techniques for the development of good learning
conditions, view each student as a unique individual, and insofar
as it is possible, provide for individual differences,
abilities, and interests.
The Full Time Faculty’s primary role is to teach in their areas of expertise, maintain the integrity of course and instructional programs, and to ensure that their delivery is in alignment with the University mission and vision for the student experience. As such, faculty are responsible for creating an academic atmosphere of mutual respect and consideration for individual dignity. Faculty members may be asked to aid in the development of curriculum in the residential and distance education environments, as well as engage in research/scholarship or creative activity that varies depending upon the expectations of their respective college or school and any additional activities involving service to students and their professional discipline.
Full Time Faculty are contracted for 10, 11, or 12 months (30, 33, or 36 load hours, respectively). Release from contracted teaching load is determined each semester by the Dean, per Liberty University Faculty Handbook.
