Primary Purpose And Essential Functions
McGeorge School of Law invites applications for several adjunct professor positions to teach online law courses in Tax Law, Intellectual Property Law, Business Organizations, and Election Law. These three-unit courses will be offered to graduate law students, including LLM and MSL students.
All our courses are fully online, asynchronous course designed for graduate students. The courses are intended to have a strong focus on projects, practical exercises, and case studies. Faculty-student interaction, accessibility, and achievement of credit hour standards are the highest priorities.

The professor will be assisted by an Instructional Designer who will handle technical issues and manage the course development process.
