Digi Pen Institute of Technology invites applications from qualified faculty for a semester-based travel teaching assignment at our partner universities in China — Jiangsu Second Normal University (JSNU) in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, and/or Yantai University (YTU) in Yantai, Shandong Province.

Faculty selected for this assignment will travel to and reside at the partner institution campus for an 8-week intensive teaching period in Fall 2026. During this time, they will teach scheduled Digi Pen-accredited courses, which constitutes their full teaching workload for that semester. Remaining faculty responsibilities — including grading, student feedback, and curriculum support — are fulfilled during and immediately following the on‑site period.

This assignment is open to current Digi Pen faculty from our Redmond, Singapore, and Bilbao campuses as well as external applicants who meet the qualifications below. For external candidates, this is a per-semester engagement tied to the teaching assignment; continued participation is subject to program needs and performance.

Faculty are invited to express interest in teaching any of the following courses, offered across both partner campuses. Specific assignments will be confirmed based on qualifications, departmental scheduling feasibility, and program needs, in consultation with the relevant Department Chair.
