Ramapo values its adjunct instructors and consider them an integral part of the learning
process. At the beginning of each year an orientation is held for all new and returning adjuncts
to keep them apprised of the latest college policies and procedures.

To teach courses offered by an academic unit, the minimum academic qualification is a Master’s degree in a relevant field. Exceptions may be made by the Provost upon recommendation of the Dean. (Board of Trustees Policy #603).
