Nursing Faculty Position

Saint Martin's University in Lacey, Washington, is a Catholic, Benedictine liberal arts institution rooted in the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, which upholds the continuity of faith and reason, the dignity of every person, and the lifelong pursuit of truth. Guided by the Hallmarks of Benedictine Education and core themes of Faith, Reason, Service, and Community, we cultivate a welcoming and hospitable community where faculty and staff of all backgrounds are invited to share their gifts in service of our students and mission. At the heart of that mission is a ministry of education in the liberal arts, forming students to grow as whole persons, pursue wisdom, and contribute to the common good. We seek colleagues who wish to join this mission in partnership with the monks of Saint Martin's Abbey: educating with care, accompanying students on their journey, and working together for personal and communal transformation.

The nursing program at Saint Martin's is growing. We have a traditional BSN, an RN to BSN and adding an LPN to BSN program in Fall 2021. The Nursing Department maintains a vacancy pool of qualified persons interested in temporary teaching positions.

The rate of compensation is $1000 per student credit hour.
