Full Job Description

Description

The mission of The University of Bridgeport is to promote academic excellence, personal responsibility, and commitment to service. Distinctive curricula in an international, culturally diverse supportive learning environment prepare graduates for life and leadership in an increasingly interconnected world.

Position Description

The English Department within the College of Science and Society at the University of Bridgeport invites applications for Adjunct Instructors of English. This position is primarily focused on the delivery of the First-Year Writing (FYW) curriculum. The department seeks dedicated educators who are committed to student success in foundational composition and who can provide high-quality instruction to a diverse student body. While the core need is for composition, instructors may occasionally be considered for other general education courses in areas such as literature, creative writing, film, communications, and digital media as enrollment demands dictate.

Primary Instructional Responsibilities

Facilitate all assigned class sessions in strict accordance with the university’s academic calendar and the established goals of the First-Year Writing program.
Develop and maintain course materials, including syllabi and lectures, that align with departmental standards and learning outcomes.
Provide timely and substantive feedback on student writing assignments to support academic development and successful completion of the course.
Maintain regularly scheduled office hours to provide individual support and guidance to students.
Utilize the Canvas Learning Management System for all course administration, including the posting of syllabi, recording of grades, and management of student communications.
Adhere to all university policies regarding academic integrity, grading deadlines, and classroom conduct.
Incorporate digital writing practices and university-supported platforms to facilitate course objectives and ensure students develop the digital literacy required for modern academic work.

Qualifications

Minimum Qualifications

A Master’s degree in English, Composition and Rhetoric, or a closely related field in the Humanities.
Professional experience teaching college-level writing or composition.
Demonstrated ability to manage multiple grading deadlines and administrative requirements effectively.
Proficiency in utilizing Learning Management Systems (Canvas preferred).

Preferred Qualifications

Significant experience specifically teaching First-Year Writing (FYW) and core composition.
Experience working with diverse student populations and a commitment to inclusive pedagogical practices.

Compensation and Terms of Employment

Compensation for this position is set at a flat rate of $1,000 per credit hour for candidates holding a Master's degree and $1,200 per credit hour for candidates holding a terminal degree (Ph.D. or MFA). This is a part-time, semester-based appointment with no guarantee of continued employment beyond the assigned sections.

Application Procedures

Interested candidates must submit a formal letter of interest and a current Curriculum Vitae. The cover letter should specifically address the applicant's experience with First-Year Writing pedagogy and include a statement of general availability for the upcoming semester. All materials should be submitted via the university's application portal.
