Reporting to the Dean of Nursing, the Adjunct Faculty in Arts & Health Sciences has the primary responsibility of teaching disciplinary or interdisciplinary courses for the general education curriculum in an online or hybrid format, capable of being fully delivered asynchronously or semi-synchronously to students in off-campus locations.
