Adjunct Clinical Instructor - Diagnostic Imaging

Position: Adjunct Clinical Instructor - Diagnostic Imaging - SUNY Orange
Job Description:

SUNY Orange is recognized for its excellence in teaching and takes pride in its role in educating the next generation of students.

The Diagnostic Imaging department invites applications from individuals with a commitment to excellence in teaching students from diverse backgrounds.

We are currently seeking Adjunct Clinical Instructors to teach clinical per diem. Days and times of clinical assignments can be found on the Diagnostic Imaging webpage, but in general, are day or "business hours". The number of hours assigned may vary and are determined by student clinical assignments and workload (hours or a certain number of hours are not guaranteed). Typically the assigned hours vary from a minimum of 15 to a max of 120 hours in a semester depending on allotted hours and one's availability.

Clinical instructors may also be assigned to function as Skills Lab Instructors for tutoring. Skills labs typically occur after class and scheduled labs conclude (approximately 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm and later). These sessions support student success through individualized review and practice. Other future opportunities could include continuing education courses (development and hosting).

The Adjunct Clinical Instructor supports the Radiologic Technology Program by providing direct supervision, instruction, and evaluation of students in the clinical setting. Clinical instructors play a critical role in helping students integrate classroom knowledge with patient care and imaging practice in a professional healthcare environment.

Clinical instructors are assigned to various affiliated clinical locations based on program need. While the program makes every effort to place instructors at sites closer to their residence, site requests cannot be guaranteed. The current program location is Middletown, but this will likely change to Newburgh in about a year.
