Agupdate is hiring: Assistant Teaching Professor - Communication in Glendale
Agupdate, Glendale, AZ, United States, 85318
The School of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences (New College) at Arizona State University (ASU) seeks a dynamic individual and engaged scholar of Communication who will assist with developing and delivering the curriculum for a Bachelor’s and/or Master’s degree in Communication in the Cintana program. This program was launched in Fall 2020 with the goal of providing access to graduate studies in communication for learners located in Mexico and other countries. We are particularly interested in individuals who can contribute to a variety of degree concentrations in Communication.
This is a part-time, .50 FTE, benefits-eligible, non-tenure-track position with an appointment at the rank of Assistant Teaching Professor, to start in August 2025. This position carries a teaching load of 2-3 courses per semester and service expectations.
This faculty member will be responsible for co-lecturing a few international courses per semester (usually one to two) equivalent to one credit hour each, as well as teaching one to two ASU courses per semester. Co-lecturing involves collaboratively teaching courses offered by ASU’s international partner institutions, in partnership with one or more faculty members from those institutions. While most co-lecturing will be conducted virtually, the role requires international travel for short-term, in-person teaching assignments (usually lasting 3 to 14 days) two to four times per year. The successful candidate must have the ability to effectively communicate and teach in Spanish.
Teaching faculty also contribute to the service mission of programs in the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences through student outreach activities, service on committees, and industry engagement activities. Faculty are also expected to remain engaged through professional development and external services.
Essential Functions of the Position:
- Teach communication and related courses primarily online at both the undergraduate and graduate levels in both English and Spanish.
- Provide service to the school, college, university, community, and/or profession.
- Monitor student progress, providing timely feedback and guidance to support their academic success.
- Must be available to travel internationally 2-4 times a year.
