Our Faculty and Instructors
SCCC employs several faculty members who teach classes throughout the year, but we also rely upon a pool of talented part-time instructors to complete our instructional staff. Part-time instructors teach up to 12 credit hours per semesters.

Educational and Credentialing Requirements

ARTS & SCIENCES: Instructors for subject areas in the Arts and Sciences (e.g. History, English, Biology, Psychology, etc.) require a Master’s Degree in the field in which they will be instructing OR at least 18 graduate credits in the subject area. Instructors for remedial-level courses may teach with fewer transcripted graduate credits if approved by the Department Chair.
