Building on Purdue University's mission to provide greater access to</p> <p>affordable, high-quality education, Purdue University Global is a public, nonprofit</p> <p>institution offering a world-class education online.</p> <p>Successful candidates in this role will reside in the Houston, TX, area or within a</p> <p>commutable distance. The clinical site is located at 1120 Business Center Drive</p> <p>Houston, Texas 77043.</p> <p>Job Summary:</p> <p>Full-time faculty may have responsibilities in four areas: teaching, service, scholarship,</p> <p>and professional development. The amount of time spent in each area is determined on</p> <p>an annual basis, after discussion between the faculty member and their Program Head,</p> <p>and may vary from year to year. The workload is based on the needs of the Department</p> <p>and School, consistent with the university's mission as a teaching institution. While the</p> <p>majority of faculty typically spend the greatest percentage of their time teaching, there is</p> <p>the opportunity in a given year for the percentage of time in any category to change.</p> <p>Teaching responsibilities may include both undergraduate and graduate courses. The</p> <p>number of courses assigned will consider credentials, program needs, course types, the</p> <p>number of different preparations, and the number of students served.</p> <p>Service will typically include participating in and/or taking leadership roles in Purdue</p> <p>Global department or institution-wide governance committees. Service examples also</p> <p>include course lead, training and mentoring other faculty, facilitating student-focused</p> <p>organizations or activities, the evaluation of student portfolios, curriculum work, vacation</p> <p>relief for colleagues, and leadership in professional organizations. In limited cases,</p> <p>specific service activities may be assigned additional compensation.</p> <p>Scholarship activities vary with the interests of the individual faculty member and may</p> <p>not be required. Scholarship activities should be developed in consultation with the</p> <p>Dean, Associate Dean or Program Head. Examples of PG scholarship activities include</p> <p>developing and implementing solutions or new approaches to academic and</p> <p>professional challenges, as well as publishing articles related to research within the</p> <p>discipline or profession and/or presenting at academic or professional meetings.</p> <p>Some professional development (8 hours) is required for all faculty over the course of a</p> <p>year. Faculty development beyond these minimum expectations may be considered part</p> <p>of an annual workload, if determined appropriate by the Academic Program Head or</p> <p>requested by the faculty member and approved by the Program Head.</p> <p>A balance of these four responsibilities is intended to sustain the academic goals of the</p> <p>university to serve adult learners, and advance the professional goals of the faculty,</p> <p>while creating a supportive learning environment that provides students with a clear</p> <p>path to graduation.</p> <p>Teaching is typically the primary assignment for a Purdue Global faculty member, with</p> <p>service, scholarship and additional professional development activities comprising the</p> <p>balance of the annual workload.
