Adjunct & Part-Time Faculty Resources
Are you a new part-time or adjunct instructor? Then you’ve come to the right place! CIDDE will be providing workshops, services, and resources directed at the growing population of adjunct and part-time college educators. The mission of CIDDE is to promote excellence and innovation in teaching, learning and scholarly activities at the University of Pittsburgh. This is simply a new chapter in our history of supporting teaching at Pitt.
We value your feedback and welcome suggestions for making resources for adjunct teaching faculty even better. Have a suggestion? Contact us at teaching@pitt.edu.
