Anyone know what is required to teach at the college/university level? Any information would be great. Thanks http://www3.pak.org/gupshup/smilies/smile.gif

Lily,
it depends on
1- the institution i.e. what University/College you want to teach at
2- the level you want to teach at: Undergraduate degree programs ;
Postgraduate diploma programs ;
Graduate level programs
etc.
3- your faculty status
For teaching at University with a faculty status of an Assistant Professor or in some cases an Associate Professor, you normally require a Ph.D. or you should be near completion in your Ph.D. program.
For teaching at University with an instructor status, you need a Masters degree in a related field. Positions such as these are exceptionally rare.
For teaching at a Community College in a degree program, you need a Masters degree and to teach a Postgraduate diploma program, you need either a Masters degree or a Bachelors degree with relevant work experience.
The above are merely guidelines from little that I know. I teach at various community colleges in Toronto as a Program Instructor for Post-Graduate Diploma programs.
