Pacific Rim

PIU logoPacific Islands University in Guam is looking for a variety of college-level instructors and academic personnel. PIU is a fully accredited, four-year university with a culturally diverse student body (primarily from Micronesia). There are about 80 full-time students. PIU also maintains remote teaching facilities in Yap, Micronesia, and the Republic of Palau, and a remote teaching facility is under development in Chuuk, Micronesia.

Library sessionAll instruction is done in English. Pacific Islands Bible College offers a certificate, associate and bachelor degrees in Bible. Pacific Islands Evangelical Seminary offers a Master's degree in Biblical Studies. Pacific Islands Christian College offers a liberal arts degree with an emphasis on training teachers. PIU is accredited by a U.S. association.

The school’s present academic staff needs include:

• Professors of English: a doctorate level is preferred, a masters degree required. Experience and certification in TESL would be very helpful. There is also a need for a remedial English instructor with a BA in English or other area with TESL training/experience. A culturally diverse student body (primarily from Micronesia) needs assistance in mastering higher levels of English reading, writing and comprehension. Although the university campus is in Guam, there may be opportunities for travel and teaching on other Micronesian islands.

Students outside• Professor of Education: There is a critical shortage of trained teachers throughout the Micronesian islands; PIU wants to establish a program to train Christian teachers to serve in island schools, training the next generation. PIU is looking for someone with an Ed.D. to set up  and supervise the Education program.

• Professors in Liberal Arts and Recreational Ministry: a doctorate level is preferred, a masters degree required. These courses form the backbone of Pacific Islands Christian College, preparing students for careers in Micronesia.

• Professors for the Bible College and Seminary: A doctoral degree is required to teach for the seminary; a master’s degree is required to teach the Bible College courses. PIU needs instructors in Theology, New Testament, Missiology and Biblical Counseling. The university is also seeking a resident counselor certified in supervising student interns.

PIU 2011 graduationThe majority of those who currently work at PIU are in full-time ministry and have raised their own support as missionaries or volunteers. With the help of staff and faculty working in supported positions, PIU is able to carry out its vision of making an accessible, excellent, transformational college education with a biblical world view accessible to the Pacific Region.

PIU sealLiebenzell is a faith mission; all of our missionaries depend upon the sacrificial support of their home church, families, missions-focused churches, and Christian friends to provide for their ministry needs.
