Overseas Collegiate Faculty are Collegiate Faculty who teach at Overseas locations as assigned by UMGC. At the request of the University, Overseas Collegiate Faculty members are subject to geographical assignment at all locations within their assigned region of UMGC Europe, UMGC Asia, or UMGC Downrange, and are required to relocate to new geographical areas within the faculty member's assigned region throughout the appointment period.
Faculty selected for these one-year positions will teach a minimum of two class sections a session in on-base education centers in UMGC's unique 8-week, 5-session academic calendar.

Full-privilege, base access cards will allow utilization of on-base gyms, commissaries, gas stations, convenience stores, shopping facilities (PX, BX or NEX), banks, libraries, travel/tour agencies, and post offices. Faculty members are required to be flexible/committed to teaching in any classroom modality (face-to-face, hybrid, online, and live streaming).
