UAF Chukchi is always seeking adjunct professors. While some subjects like math, English, and political science require advanced degrees (generally, a Masters or higher), other subjects (like Inupiaq language and arts, medical billing, and first aid) require less education like a certification or A.A.S.. Other subjects like native arts & crafts, arctic survival, and hunting need no formal education at all. If you want to teach, please contact us about opportunities.
