JOB SUMMARY
Responsible for providing high-quality, engaging, in-person instruction in anatomy and physiology for the Physician Assistant (PA) program’s didactic phase. Instructions will include the use of the Anatomage Table, lecture presentations, and interactive discussions to enhance learner understanding of human anatomy and physiological function. The adjunct will teach one day per week on campus and will provide academic mentoring as needed. Course content will align with University and PA curriculum standards and the PA Program’s mission, vision, values, and competencies.
Ottawa University is accepting applications for potential openings for Adjunct Instructor positions. The need for these positions is undetermined at this time and is dependent on operational need including enrollment and staffing If a need arises, the department will select candidates from this general adjunct posting. We do post adjunct instructor positions for specific areas and needs periodically and you will need to apply as you see those become available.
If you are interested in teaching in a university setting, it can be helpful to gain experience as an adjunct instructor. Many of our adjunct instructors hold a full-time career elsewhere, and choose to teach in our evening, weekend, and online programs so that they may have the opportunity to teach students.
Ottawa University employs adjunct instructors to teach undergraduate/graduate level coursework for its adult campuses. Each location has an Academic Coordinator/Academic Dean dedicated to hiring for adjunct teaching responsibilities.
