Clinical Assistant Professor rank in the Rehabilitation Counseling Program, within the Department of Counseling, School, and Educational

principles through an engaged community of scholars who prioritize research, teaching, and community action that address educational,

thought leaders who strive for innovation in training and field practice to have enduring impact on the lives of individuals and
communities. The Rehabilitation Counseling Program offers a practitioner-focused Master of Science degree accredited by The Council for
Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).
We are seeking motivated, collaborative faculty,

social, and health systems to ensure the well-being of people from minoritized groups and individuals with disabilities. Ideal candidates
are able to make clear connections between their research, teaching, and service, and the unique intersectional needs of people of color
with disabilities.
Fundamentally, we believe in equity of opportunity, social justice advocacy, and providing holistic,
integrative supports. Our program emphasizes rehabilitation counselor skill development through innovation in clinical supervision and
practical experiences in interdisciplinary, integrated-health settings. We have a particular interest in early-career faculty who have a
record of research and/or practice in counselor supervision, culturally-responsive interventions, and working with interdisciplinary,
community-based support services.
