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. From its
start in ‎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. Roughly ‎80% work full time, half are parents, and half are
minority students. They are continuing their education to better themselves,
their families, and their professional opportunities. UMGC is also a leading
higher education provider to the U.S. military, enrolling ‎55,000 active-duty
service members, reservists, National Guard members, veterans, and family
members annually. We are proud of our military heritage and are committed to
this service.
The Adjunct Faculty Role at UMGC
UMGC is committed to helping students achieve success not only with us, but
also in their professional fields. As a result, we actively seek faculty
members who are scholar-practitioners: professionals who are actively and
successfully engaged in their field who additionally wish to help the next
generation of professionals grow in their knowledge and expertise through
education. Your role as an adjunct faculty member will be to:
* Actively engage students through frequent interaction that motivates them to succeed, and conveys a genuine energy and enthusiasm for their learning.
* Guide students in active collaboration and the application of their learning in problem- and project-based learning demonstrations.
* Provide rich and regular constructive feedback, utilizing rubrics effectively for the assessment of student work, and acknowledging student accomplishments.
* Demonstrate relevant and current subject-matter expertise, and help students connect concepts across their academic program.
