Assistant Professor of Digital Design

Overview

Join the Jimmie family and make a difference in the lives of students. You don’t have to be a student to be a Jimmie; we consider our faculty and staff a main part of what makes UJ so great. If you’re interested in working toward our mission and students’ development, both in and out of the classroom, then we’re interested in you!

We strive to offer our employees a diverse work environment that values service, leadership, personal well-being, and professional development. Our faculty and staff know our students. They work with them in the classroom, cheer them on at games, and are in the audience at their performances. Our employees truly make a lasting difference in their lives.

At UJ, we value your worth as an employee, and as a person. That means we work hard to meet our goals and help each student develop into the person they are meant to be. And we also go home at the end of the day.

When you work at UJ, you don’t just join a team, you join a family. And that’s not a cliché here. It’s a perk of working at a small University that values every member of our community. We even have a Caring Fund, which is financial assistance reserved for staff or faculty suffering a hardship.

We offer a well-rounded benefit package that includes:

• Health, dental and vision coverage available
• Long-term disability insurance
• Paid holidays and vacation
• Retirement contributions
• Tuition waiver for spouse and dependents
• Free admission to all university athletic and fine arts events
