Job Profile:Teaching Assistant Professor
Job Duties:
The Department of Counseling, Rehabilitation, and Human Services is actively expanding their department and developing a master’s in Social Work degree and seeking candidates for four Teaching Assistant/Associate Professor positions. These grant-funded, full-time, 9-month academic year positions, with opportunity for summer work/teaching may begin as soon as January 2027. Faculty in these positions will initially give primary focus on curriculum development, CSWE accreditation alignment. We are seeking candidates for leadership roles within the program to assist in the development of a part-time hybrid MSW program along with teaching within similar disciplines.

At culmination of grant funding and depending on program success, the faculty may be eligible to apply for a tenure track position, with potential for three years applied towards promotion and tenure, through the standard recruitment process.
A successful candidate will be passionate about program and curriculum development, committed to promoting the development of an equitable and inclusive learning environment, and familiar with CSWE accreditation processes. The Department supports a variety of contemporary teaching modalities including in-person, blended, and distance learning environments.
