Adjunct Faculty Positions

Job Description

Job Description

Georgetown College invites applications for adjunct faculty positions in Management, Healthcare Administration, Marketing, Economics, Accounting, and Finance. Appointments are made on a semester basis for inclusion in the adjunct faculty pool and may involve teaching in-person or online courses, depending on program needs. Applicants must hold at least a master’s degree in the teaching discipline or a closely related field, while a Ph.D. or other terminal degree is preferred. Candidates should demonstrate effective teaching ability, relevant professional experience, and a commitment to fostering student engagement within a liberal arts environment. Adjunct faculty are expected to provide high-quality instruction, maintain consistent communication with students, assess learning outcomes, and follow all departmental and institutional policies.

Georgetown College, a unique blend of a private, Christian, liberal arts institution, is dedicated to fostering excellence in teaching within a diverse context. Nestled in the charming college town of Georgetown, Kentucky, just 12 miles north of Lexington, it offers a distinctive academic environment.

As a Christian institution, Georgetown College fosters community through admissions, hiring, and promotion policies that are based on merit, qualifications, and character. Georgetown College does not discriminate, either in the admission of students, hiring and promotion of employees, or in the administration of any educational policies, programs, or activities based on race, color, national or ethnic origin, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, disability or veteran status. Women, people of color, members of the LGBTQ+ community, Indigenous People, and those with other or multiple historically marginalized and underrepresented identities are especially encouraged to apply to support our growing population of diverse students.

Georgetown College is a historically Baptist institution committed to remaining broadly Christian in the 21st century. The College does not require faculty to be part of any denomination or to commit to any specific creedal or faith statement. Still, as the College is rooted in Christian love and service, we expect our faculty to actively live out those values. The College may use religion to make faculty employment decisions and Board of Trustees appointments.

Screening will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. To be considered for the position, please upload a cover letter, curriculum vitae, unofficial transcripts, a statement of teaching philosophy, and three letters of recommendation.
