Instructional Faculty Qualifications Policy
Policy Statement
UIS is committed to providing high quality instruction to our students. Tenure system and non-tenure system faculty with instructional responsibilities must be appropriately credentialed and possess minimum required degrees based on the rank of appointment.
Faculty Files Office
About the Faculty Files Office
The Faculty Files Custodian maintains, safeguards and grants full-time faculty access to their digital personnel files. Digital files will also be made available to personnel committees and other reviewers for reappointment, tenure, and promotion reviews per the processes outlined in the Faculty Personnel Policy and by the dates listed in the Academic Personnel Calendar.
Adjunct Hire Requests
UIS routinely seeks competent, qualified professionals to teach on a per-course (adjunct) basis. Departments/Schools may send forward requests to hire, or requests to add to the adjunct pool for future use, those individuals who not only possess outstanding credentials and experience in their fields, but also have the desire to share their expertise with our students.
Adjunct Opportunities
The University of Illinois Springfield has occasional need for individuals to teach on a per-course, or “adjunct” basis. Qualified individuals can apply to one or more programs listed on the Adjunct Job Board of our Cornerstone system. Programs will periodically review applications and reach out to applicants whose qualifications and experience align with their needs.
