The Interdisciplinary Studies program draws from perspectives and methodologies from various academic disciplines. Its courses engage students in learning opportunities through seminars and faculty-supervised independent learning activities. In addition, Interdisciplinary Studies is the administrative home of the Military Studies Minor, the Peace Corps Preparation Certificate, and experiential learning courses associated with the Peer Health Educator Internship Program. Duties of a part-time lecturer include instruction, class preparation, grading, and office hours. Other duties may be assigned based on departmental needs. Course assignments, including dates, time, and modality, are made by the Department Chair under the direction of the College Dean. Part-time lecturers are instructional faculty with conditional appointments based on enrollment and budget. Hires from the pool of applicants are made when there are instructional needs to fill coursework offered by an academic department based on changing enrollment patterns, changes to tenure-track faculty assignments, and other factors that cannot be addressed with our existing faculty. Initial appointments are typically for one semester, but occasionally academic year initial appointments are made. Appointments may be renewed based on department needs, funding, and performance. Often appointments are made just prior to the start of the semester.
