We seek candidates who can demonstrate experience in teaching and working with individuals from diverse backgrounds and contribute to the University’s mission, vision, and core values.

“We are committed to providing quality undergraduate and innovative graduate business programs to educate students from diverse academic and socioeconomic backgrounds for career advancement. We accomplish this mission through quality teaching and service, applied research, and continuous engagement with the communities in the South Bay.”

The temporary faculty pool is continuously open, and positions are filled as needed, based on student enrollment and funding. Candidates may need to be available to begin teaching on short notice. The Fall term begins in late August and ends in mid‑December; the Spring term begins mid‑January and ends in mid‑May. Opportunities for teaching during the Summer Sessions may also be available.
