Re: [PLUG] IT Teaching Faculty Position at Drexel University


This is one of those rare instances where the Masters degree is a hard requirement. Usually, it's just a way to filter out or bypass certain applicants.

Wish I had a Master's. Hope you find someone.

The comments below are accurate:

- This announcement is for a full-time position. I'll add however that we often look for adjuncts in this same degree program. Courses are offered both online and on-campus. The same qualifications apply. If anyone is interested in teaching part-time as an adjunct faculty member, you can send me a resume and I'll pass it along for review.

- The Master's degree is a requirement, and yes, accreditation is one of the driving considerations for that. As you might guess given the nature of the degree, professional experience matters a lot too.

Drexel's CCI school has an excellent Master's program. :)
