Worcester, Western Cape, South Africa Worcester Polytech Full time

We are seeking qualified candidates to join our team as part-time adjunct faculty members. As a member of the Department of Integrative and Global Studies at WPI, you will have the opportunity to teach a unique course in social methods.

This course involves students working in teams to prepare a research proposal to guide work for external sponsors in the following term. Students must learn to function in teams, setting goals, completing background research, understanding appropriate research methods, thinking critically, and writing and presenting effectively.

Experience in social research and teaching social research methods is highly desirable, although a Ph.D. in a relevant social science discipline is not required. The Global Experience Office manages WPI's Global Perspective Program, through which most juniors complete interdisciplinary projects off campus each year.

Instructors must be available for office hours and consultation with students outside of class time. The WPI calendar is based on four 7-week terms, two in the fall and two in the spring, with our project preparation course offered only in the evenings, Mondays & Thursdays, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. for seven weeks each.
