INTRODUCTION
The University of Connecticut, School of Nursing is seeking applications to fill two full-time, 9-month, non-tenure-track Clinical Instructor positions at our Storrs campus. Under the direction of the Director for Pre-licensure Programs, these clinical faculty members are responsible for teaching in an academic setting, with a focus on undergraduate teaching in the following areas: didactic, clinical, simulation, or lab instruction. Faculty members are additionally responsible for: advising, supervising pre-licensure students in clinical work, apprising each student of his or her clinical performance on a regular basis, conducting evaluations of individual student’s clinical performance via impromptu meetings and planned evaluation conferences, evaluating student’s written work, and participating in campus laboratory teaching experiences. Clinical Instructors act as liaisons to clinical agencies, sharing clinical expectations and course syllabi with relevant agency staff, and addressing and initiating action when required for student/agency issues that arise. Clinical Instructors are expected to participate in faculty and assigned committee meetings when these meetings do not conflict with planned teaching.
