Adjunct Teaching Opportunity

Seattle Pacific University seeks faculty candidates who are equally oriented to the liberal arts approach to education and to the applications of such an education in the world of work. Candidates should be abreast of developments in their fields and prepared to teach non-traditional groups of students and use alternative delivery systems, including new educational technologies. They should also enjoy the prospect of meeting with students to discuss their educational goals and participate in the planning of a program of studies suited to the needs of the individual student.
