Teach for GPS

Brandeis Graduate Professional Studies (GPS) welcomes applications for its adjunct faculty pool on an ongoing basis. Our adjunct faculty are active professionals in their respective fields and have earned at least a master's degree; many hold additional academic degrees and industry-specific credentials. They have professional expertise which they bring to the online class discussions.

Our 10-week courses are taught fully online, with no set days or times for interaction.  Previous experience teaching online is not required; GPS offers a comprehensive training program for qualified faculty.  

If you would like to be considered, please review our part-time applied master's degree programs and submit an application, which includes an uploaded current resume or CV.
