UNG is focused on a mission of educational excellence, leadership development and community engagement opportunities that develop students into leaders for a diverse and global society.

Through a variety of educational pathways that provide access and range from certificates and associate degrees to a professional doctoral program, UNG is responsive to regional education and economic development needs.

The University of North Georgia is currently hiring for Part-Time Temporary Summer Instructors on the Dahlonega Campus. The UNG Upward Bound Programs are a year‑long college preparatory program for first generation and/or low‑income high school students attending Gilmer High School in Ellijay, GA and Johnson High School in Gainesville, GA. UNG UB is committed to ensuring student success in the global community and workforce by providing young scholars with the knowledge, skills, and disposition needed to gain admission to a postsecondary institution and earn a college degree.

The Summer Residential Component is an intensive three‑week academic enrichment program that meets Sunday evening through Friday. Summer participants will live in a residence hall on UNG's Dahlonega campus and will be under 24‑hour adult supervision by the Upward Bound Administration and Summer Residential Advisors. Academic classes will be held Monday - Thursday, 8:00 am - 12:30 pm and/or 1:30 pm - 5:00 pm. Classes will consist of math, English, science, social studies, foreign language, and/or elective courses.

The UB program will also offer college and career readiness workshops and cultural enrichment field trips.

Summer instructors are responsible for assisting in the development of curriculum, needs assessment, and pre/post‑tests. They must develop and maintain lesson plans and evaluations, provide classroom instruction in assigned academic courses, assess student needs and provide tutorials as needed. The tentative dates for instruction are June 15th - July 3rd, 2026.

As a public institution, the university’s ability to cover such costs is subject to budgetary constraints and state funding policies. Therefore, while we remain committed to supporting international faculty hires, we cannot guarantee payment of any newly imposed or increased visa‑related fees.
