The University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music (CCM) Preparatory Division, commonly known as CCM Prep, offers an extensive range of educational programs in music, dance, and theatre arts designed for individuals of all ages and skill levels. These programs cater to diverse groups, including adults, youth, teens, and pre-professional students with aspirations of pursuing careers in the performing arts. CCM Prep is dedicated to creating a nurturing environment that supports artistic growth and skill development through high-quality instruction. Currently, CCM Prep is inviting applications for term adjunct (part-time) faculty positions to teach in their diverse music, dance, and theatre programs. These roles are centered on providing instruction to non-matriculated students and may involve delivering private lessons or leading group classes. Faculty members will have the opportunity to impart their artistic expertise and pedagogical skills to a dynamic, diverse student body in a supportive academic setting. The positions require flexibility regarding scheduling, as teaching may occur during school days, after school, evenings, weekends, and potentially during summer camps. Candidates must be willing to teach on-campus or at assigned locations and be available during these varied times. These term adjunct roles do not provide visa sponsorship. This part-time opportunity is ideal for experienced performing arts educators eager to contribute to the university’s esteemed preparatory programs and help foster the next generation of artists and performers.
