The University of Memphis maintains a continuously open part-time faculty pool in Sociology, with appointees teaching one or two courses, generally at the undergraduate level, on assignments made term by term across fall, spring and summer. The posting states that it is not a guarantee of an open position: applications are accepted on a continuous basis and reviewed by the department chair when openings become available, and the pool closes each year on January 31, so applicants must re-apply annually to remain in the system. The stated qualification is a master's degree in the teaching discipline, or a master's in another discipline with 18 hours of graduate work in the teaching discipline; previous higher education teaching experience is strongly desired, and selected candidates must pass a criminal background check. The hiring range is listed as starting at $858 per credit hour, and the work is on-site at the main campus in Memphis, Tennessee. Applicants upload a cover letter, resume/CV, references list, statement of teaching philosophy and an unofficial transcript.
