Job Description
Class Description
CCBC is the college of choice for over 50,000 students and 200 businesses each year — all with unique goals, strengths and requirements. By offering a holistic learning environment that is both accepting and challenging, we meet students where they are and take them where they want to go. We offer the region’s most expansive selection of degree, certificate and workplace certification programs at 3 campuses plus 3 convenient CCBC centers along with off-site community locations.
CMNS101: Fundamentals of Human Communication introduces the study of human communication. Students develop an understanding of the theoretical principles of verbal and nonverbal interaction by analyzing and applying these principles in a variety of communication contexts. Areas of study include intrapersonal, interpersonal, cross-cultural, small group, and public speaking.
Communication Studies adjunct faculty are needed to teach morning and afternoon classes for the Community College of Baltimore County at external locations, such as at local-area high schools or other local, higher-ed institutions. Adjunct faculty are selected based on program needs and subject matter expertise of the applicant. Please note that our greatest need for staffing classes is generally Monday through Friday between 8:00 am and 3:00 pm. Many classes will require instructors to be available five days per week. There is limited availability of staffing options beyond these times, but we stress that these needs are very limited.
Adjunct faculty will be expected to facilitate learning via preparation and delivery of instruction, cooperation with college support staff in timely submission of materials and grades as required, and coordination of activities with the Program Director or Coordinator. Adjunct faculty are required to attend meetings, be available to students outside of class, assist in maintaining program accreditation, and participate in professional development related to classroom instruction and pedagogy. Please note that CCBC-specific trainings may be required before certain class assignments can be given.
