The St. David’s School of Nursing seeks to develop a pool of candidates for possible temporary/nontenured faculty to teach in undergraduate programs.

Temporary/nontenured faculty are appointed to supervise student clinical learning experiences, including but not limited to, administration of medications, procedures, health assessments, only when the qualified and experienced faculty member is physically present in the affiliating agency or alternative practice setting.

Teaching appointments are based upon student demand on a semester-by-semester basis. Eligibility for reappointment is contingent upon satisfactory annual performance evaluations during the term period, in addition to continuity of funding and departmental/school/program needs.
