    Assistant professor job in Perry, IA

    Our Opportunity: The Full-Time Faculty role will provide support to Purdue University Global's School of Nursing. Building on Purdue University's mission to provide greater access to affordable, high-quality education, Purdue University Global is a public, nonprofit institution offering a world-class education online. Successful candidates in this role will reside in the Perry, IA, area or within a commutable distance. The clinical site is located at Dallas County Hospital 610 10th Street, Perry, IA 50220. Job Summary: Full-time faculty may have responsibilities in four areas: teaching, service, scholarship, and professional development. The amount of time spent in each area is determined on an annual basis, after discussion between the faculty member and their Program Head, and may vary from year to year. The workload is based on the needs of the Department and School, consistent with the university's mission as a teaching institution. While the majority of faculty typically spend the greatest percentage of their time teaching, there is the opportunity in a given year for the percentage of time in any category to change. Teaching responsibilities may include both undergraduate and graduate courses.

Scholarship activities should be developed in consultation with the Dean, Associate Dean or Program Head. Examples of PG scholarship activities include developing and implementing solutions or new approaches to academic and professional challenges, as well as publishing articles related to research within the discipline or profession and/or presenting at academic or professional meetings. Some professional development (8 hours) is required for all faculty over the course of a year. Faculty development beyond these minimum expectations may be considered part of an annual workload, if determined appropriate by the Academic Program Head or requested by the faculty member and approved by the Program Head. A balance of these four responsibilities is intended to sustain the academic goals of the university to serve adult learners, and advance the professional goals of the faculty, while creating a supportive learning environment that provides students with a clear path to graduation. Teaching is typically the primary assignment for a Purdue Global faculty member, with service, scholarship and additional professional development activities comprising the balance of the annual workload. If no assignments are made in service and scholarship, a faculty member whose only assignment is teaching would not exceed 16-18 courses taught in a year. What to expect in this role: ● Provides a student-centered learning environment which enables students to attain success. ● Reports concerns regarding student academic progress to Success Coaches or Academic Advisors, as appropriate.
