About adjunct marketing professor jobs
Adjunct marketing professors are part-time faculty hired semester by semester to teach undergraduate or graduate marketing courses.

Credentials and qualifications
The standard credential for adjunct marketing teaching is a MBA or master's in marketing (CMO or director-level industry experience is often accepted). Accreditation guidelines generally require at least 18 graduate credit hours in the discipline you're teaching — so a related field is often acceptable if you have enough discipline-specific coursework.
