Job Description

The Department of English Language and Literature at Gardner-Webb University is seeking adjuncts to teach undergraduate courses on campus, online, or hybrid, as needed.

While we mainly seek applicants who are qualified to teach first-year writing courses, we also have an occasional need for applicants qualified to teach other subjects. We offer courses in literature, rhetoric and composition, creative writing, professional writing, and English education. Qualified candidates for teaching undergraduate courses must have at least a master's degree in English or adjacent field.

Adjuncts are contracted term-by-term based on course or section need and availability. Applicants will be added to the adjunct pool of candidates and may be contacted based on department needs. Interested applicants should complete and submit the online adjunct application.

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue as needed. Candidates should complete the application and include a brief letter of interest, rsum, and contact information for at least three professional references.

Unofficial transcripts are acceptable for application review.

If hired, official transcripts for undergraduate adjuncts must be sent directly from the granting institution to Academic Affairs.
