Salisbury University (SU), a member of the University System of Maryland, is a regionally accredited four-year comprehensive institution on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Founded in 1925, SU is home to roughly 8,000 undergraduate and graduate students across our major schools and colleges.

Our 200-acre campus sits in Salisbury, Maryland, between the Atlantic Ocean beaches and the Chesapeake Bay, roughly two hours from Baltimore, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia.

We prioritize an academic experience that deeply engages students. Faculty foster individual growth through high classroom interaction, hands-on undergraduate research, and professional preparation.

Adjunct faculty are part-time instructors hired semester-by-semester to meet specific departmental enrollment needs. SU welcomes applications from qualified professionals year-round.

Undergraduate courses typically require a master's degree in the discipline or a closely related field. Select industry certifications or deep clinical and work experience may be considered for specialized technical tracks. Graduate and professional programs require a terminal or doctorate-level degree.

Classes run morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend across Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer terms. Adjunct loads are strictly part-time, typically limited to a maximum of 8 credit hours per semester.

SU emphasizes competitive, low student-to-faculty ratios. While lecture limits vary with general education guidelines, specialized major courses average a close-knit group of students.

Pay scales depend on individual credentials, the tier of the course taught, and institutional guidelines set by the University System of Maryland.
