Job Title:

Purdue Global Full-Time Faculty ASN, School of Nursing (Perry, Iowa)

City:
Perry

Job Description:

Our Opportunity:

The Full-Time Faculty role will provide support to Purdue University Global's School of Nursing.

Building on Purdue University's mission to provide greater access to affordable, high-quality

education, Purdue University Global is a public, nonprofit institution offering a world-class

education online.

Successful candidates in this role will reside in the Perry, IA, area or within a

commutable distance. The clinical site is located at Dallas County Hospital 610 10th

Street, Perry, IA 50220.

Job Summary:

Full-time faculty may have responsibilities in four areas: teaching, service, scholarship, and

professional development. The amount of time spent in each area is determined on an annual

basis, after discussion between the faculty member and their Program Head, and may vary from

year to year. The workload is based on the needs of the Department and School, consistent

with the university's mission as a teaching institution. While the majority of faculty typically

spend the greatest percentage of their time teaching, there is the opportunity in a given year for

the percentage of time in any category to change.

Teaching responsibilities may include both undergraduate and graduate courses. The number

of courses assigned will consider credentials, program needs, course types, the number of

different preparations, and the number of students served.

Service will typically include participating in and/or taking leadership roles in Purdue Global

department or institution-wide governance committees. Service examples also include course

lead, training and mentoring other faculty, facilitating student-focused organizations or activities,

the evaluation of student portfolios, curriculum work, vacation relief for colleagues, and

leadership in professional organizations. In limited cases, specific service activities may be

assigned additional compensation.

Scholarship activities vary with the interests of the individual faculty member and may not be

required. Scholarship activities should be developed in consultation with the Dean, Associate

Dean or Program Head. Examples of PG scholarship activities include developing and

implementing solutions or new approaches to academic and professional challenges, as well as

publishing articles related to research within the discipline or profession and/or presenting at

academic or professional meetings.

Some professional development (8 hours) is required for all faculty over the course of a year.

Faculty development beyond these minimum expectations may be considered part of an annual

workload, if determined appropriate by the Academic Program Head or requested by the faculty

member and approved by the Program Head.

A balance of these four responsibilities is intended to sustain the academic goals of the

university to serve adult learners, and advance the professional goals of the faculty, while

creating a supportive learning environment that provides students with a clear path to

graduation.

Teaching is typically the primary assignment for a Purdue Global faculty member, with

service, scholarship and additional professional development activities comprising the

balance of the annual workload. If no assignments are made in service and scholarship,

a faculty member whose only assignment is teaching would not exceed 16-18 courses

taught in a year.

What to expect in this role:

● Provides a student-centered learning environment which enables students to attain success.

● Reports concerns regarding student academic progress to Success Coaches or

Academic Advisors, as appropriate. Refers students with questions regarding financial

aid, academics, attendance, and personal issues or concerns to the appropriate departments.

● Actively assists the University in retention and/or outreach efforts, which may include

directly contacting students who are not engaged in the course or absent per department

or campus guidelines.

● Maintains open and timely communication with students and the university via Purdue

Global email. Reports student behavioral and Code of Student Conduct issues.
