About this position
The Management and Organization (MOR) Department the USC-Marshall School of Business seeks to hire part-time faculty members for academic year 2025-2026. USC defines two categories of appointment for faculty working less than fulltime. These are “adjunct” and “part-time.” The difference in the categories is primarily based on the nature of a faculty member’s professional work outside of teaching at USC. Definition of Adjunct Faculty USC reserves the “Adjunct Faculty” appointment for faculty teaching less than full-time at USC, who are employed full-time in a primary profession or career elsewhere. Adjunct faculty typically teach only one course per year but, in exceptional cases, may teach one course per semester, if approved by the dean. For example, a full-time freelance artist, a lawyer employed full-time at a firm, a pharmacist employed full-time by a pharmacy, or a consultant/entrepreneur/CFO who teaches 1-2 classes a year for USC would be considered an adjunct faculty member. A retired person who considers themselves fully retired, but teaches 1-2 classes a year for USC, could be considered Adjunct Faculty or Part-time Faculty. Definition of Part-time Faculty USC reserves the “Part-time Faculty” appointment for faculty teaching less than full-time who are not employed full-time in a primary position or career elsewhere. For example, a therapist with a part-time private practice, a musician who books performances on what they consider to be a part-time basis, a biologist who has a part-time job in a lab, or someone retired from a career who teaches less than full-time at USC could be considered “Part-time Faculty.” Part-time Faculty under this definition may teach a maximum of 3 courses per semester, and we hope to limit that to 2 courses per semester as full-time faculty numbers increase. The MOR department is interdisciplinary; our 21 tenured/tenure-track faculty members have backgrounds in organizational behavior, psychology, sociolog
