Western’s mission and scheduling model. This model, where students take and faculty teach a single eighteen-day course at a time, is the
mission of the campus and an unparalleled opportunity for a talented and creative educator. Montana Western is the only public university
offering Experience One (X1), experiential learning delivered on the block schedule. The X1 model engages students and faculty in actively
exploring the knowledge, purposes, and authentic disciplinary practices of every field of study through experiential learning environments
where students take an active role in their own learning. Montana Western’s faculty strongly believe in mentoring and inspiring students and
assisting them in the transition from university life to their professional careers.
Faculty teaching
responsibilities for the tenure track position include teaching three blocks (12 credits) per semester, leaving one professional development
block per semester. The professional development block allows for faculty to focus on service activities and scholarship work. Along with
teaching the successful candidate will be expected to maintain professionalism, scholarly productivity, professional service, advising, and
committee work.
Faculty teaching responsibilities for the non-tenure track position include teaching four blocks
(16 credits) per semester. The non-tenure track teaching position does not require any additional committee, advising or scholarly
productivity.

business or a related field (in progress will be considered) for the non-tenure track position.
