Assistant Professor or Special Instructor of Special Education
Oakland University
Details
Posted: 24-Oct-23
Location: Rochester, Michigan
Salary: Open
Internal Number: 29357
Job Description Summary:
The Department of Human Development and Child Studies (HDCS) invites applications for a tenure-track, benefits-eligible faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor or Special Instructor to begin in August 2024.
Candidates will contribute to the education and training of undergraduate and graduate students across the four programs within the Special Education area: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Emotional Impairment (EI), Specific Learning Disability (SLD), and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Candidates will also contribute to the strong service reputation of HDCS.
Duties will include teaching undergraduate and graduate-level courses across the four programs within Special Education. Candidates must demonstrate potential for teaching across and supporting all four areas. Further, the successful candidate will be able to teach courses within ASD, SLD, and EI within the context of teacher preparation programs. Candidates must also demonstrate potential for scholarly productivity, as well as a commitment to or experience with diversity initiatives.
The successful candidate is expected to contribute to programs supported by HDCS in conjunction with other Departments in the School of Education and Human Services (e.g., Master of Arts in Teaching in K–12 Special Education).
Please note, for candidates applying to enter as a Special Instructor, more emphasis is placed on teaching and service responsibilities compared to research (e.g., increased teaching load compared to Assistant Professor). Candidates should clearly indicate in their cover letter their desired position (i.e., Assistant Professor or Special Instructor).
Review of applications will begin on November 6 and continue until the position is filled.
