This is a non-tenure track, 12-month faculty appointment that supports an online Master's of Science in Nursing program. Primary duties will include teaching assigned didactic and/or immersive nursing courses in the graduate and/or undergraduate programs (up to 15 semester credit hours per semester); supervising and evaluating students' progress in course work and clinical experiences; implementing and evaluating courses as needed; serving on and participating in college and university committees; advising students throughout their program of studies, as appropriate; and completing other duties as assigned by the program director or department chair. Duties also include developing and evaluating curriculum; developing and maintaining partnerships in and around the community; engaging in other activities to serve the school and the profession.

However, faculty in the program are required to travel to Laredo and be on campus for designated periods each semester for immersive labs. On-campus commitments typically range from five to six visits per academic year, with the duration of each stay determined by program needs. The candidate is expected to attend the Fall Faculty and Administrative Staff Assembly and one commencement ceremony per academic year. This position requires face-to-face interactions through a regular schedule of attendance on campus and in the workplace.
