Who We Are and Who We Serve:
UMGC—one of 12 degree-granting institutions in the University System of Maryland (USM)—is a mission-driven institution with seven core values that guide us in all we do. At the top of the list is "Students First,” and we strive to do just that for our 90,000 students at home and abroad. Since 1947, UMGC has demonstrated its commitment to adult learners. We recognize that adult students need flexibility and options. UMGC is proud to be a global, 24-hour, institution of higher learning.
The typical UMGC student is an adult learner juggling a career, family, and other priorities. About 80% work full time, half are parents, and half are minority students. They pursue education to improve themselves, their families, and their professional opportunities. UMGC also serves military members, enrolling 55,000 active-duty service members, reservists, National Guard members, veterans, and family members annually. We are proud of our military heritage and dedicated to this service.
The Adjunct Faculty Role at UMGC:
UMGC seeks faculty who are scholar-practitioners: professionals actively engaged in their fields who wish to help the next generation grow academically. Your role includes:
* Engaging students through frequent interaction, motivating them to succeed, and demonstrating enthusiasm for learning.
* Guiding students in active collaboration and applying their learning through problem- and project-based activities.
* Providing regular, constructive feedback, using rubrics effectively, and acknowledging student achievements.
