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. About 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 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 are committed to this service.

The Adjunct Faculty Role at UMGC:

UMGC is committed to helping students succeed both academically and professionally. We seek faculty members who are scholar-practitioners: professionals actively engaged in their fields who wish to help the next generation grow through education. Your role as an adjunct faculty member includes:

• Actively engaging students through frequent interaction that motivates them and conveys enthusiasm for learning.
• Guiding students in active collaboration and applying their learning in problem- and project-based demonstrations.
• Providing regular, constructive feedback, using rubrics effectively for assessment, and acknowledging student accomplishments.
• Demonstrating current subject-matter expertise and helping students connect concepts across their academic program.
• Providing feedback on curriculum improvements to your program chair.
