Adjunct Faculty

The adjunct faculty utilized by the School of Psychology & Counseling has been carefully selected to augment, not replace, our core faculty. They bring areas of expertise necessary to provide a complete curriculum. Many of them have been teaching at the school longer than some of our full-time faculty, and most are currently practicing in their respective areas of expertise, bringing their real-world experience to the classroom.

The adjunct faculty members may or may not be teaching a course currently. Adjunct faculty may be contacted via email from Blackboard during the semesters they are teaching. Select adjunct faculty names to view their curriculum vita in PDF format.
