The Environmental Studies program at Augsburg University invites applications for adjunct faculty positions to teach undergraduate courses in 2026. This search will establish a 'pool' of instructors if such openings occur during Spring, Summer, or Fall of 2026. Applicants may be selected from this pool on an as-needed basis throughout the year. Augsburg’s Environmental Studies program incorporates study in the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, and professional studies, and allows students to pick courses that fit with their interests and strengths. Our location in the city offers great opportunities for the close study of complex urban environments and access to change-makers, internships, and innovative research opportunities. Available courses vary by term. Most classes are held during the day, 2-3 days per week. In addition to teaching the class and grading student work, instructors are expected to respond to student questions through email, hold regularly scheduled office hours, reach out to students with course progress information, and communicate regularly with the course coordinator. A course syllabus with calendar, textbook and homework selection, sample activities and exams, and shared office space are typically provided. Most classes are taught in-person on our Minneapolis campus. Each course requires approximately 12-15 hours/week for 15-16 weeks. The successful candidate will possess both a high level of intercultural competency and a commitment to inclusive practice and authentic representation.
