The 11-month position will report to the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs of the college and will also be connected to the Department of Distance and Continuing Education (DCE) and the College of Graduate and Interdisciplinary Studies. The major responsibility will be to enhance the teaching mission of the college. The college plans to increase the scope of distance education activities and technologies used while producing the highest quality learning experience for students.
