Lehigh University’s College of Business is seeking qualified adjunct faculty to teach BUS 001: Foundations of Business, should openings become available. BUS 001 is offered every fall, and adjunct applications are reviewed on a rolling basis with appointments made in late spring and/or summer. Appointments range from teaching one or more BUS 001 sections on Lehigh’s campus on weekdays, typically during the 7:55 am to 4 pm time frame. Each course section requires a minimum of 1 hour of instructional time (class time) per week on a Monday or Tuesday and up to 3 additional hours per week of engagement in professional development sessions conducted on Fridays for BUS 001 students across all course sections.
Duties: Primary duties include teaching business undergraduates on campus according to established course learning objectives and a syllabus that is common across course sections. General duties include: preparing to teach using standard BUS 001 course resources; attending BUS 001 faculty meetings arranged by the BUS 001 course coordinator; holding office hours; providing prompt feedback to students; assigning grades; and contributing to the assessment of BUS 001 to inform continuous improvement of the course.
About the BUS 001 Course: BUS 001 orients business-degree students to the study of business and to College of Business expectations of undergraduates. Different types of business organizations and their goals are introduced, including overviews of the functional areas of business, their contributions to organizations, and their related careers. Students will begin to identify their professional interests, understand the wider context of business, and be exposed to the business programs and resources available to support their academic and professional success.
