Adjunct Professor Job Description

An adjunct faculty member is a full-time faculty member teaching courses during times when her or he is not a regular member of the faculty.

Adjunct faculty members are typically hired on a semester-to-semester basis.

In addition, adjunct faculty members receive no benefits such as health insurance, vacation, or pension.

Since they do not have a permanent tenure, they are paid at a lower rate, and are usually responsible for their own expenses.

Their courses usually lack the instructional support that a full-time faculty member would receive, such as technology, equipment, and facilities.

Consequently, adjunct faculty members are typically expected to provide their own teaching materials.
