Job Summary
THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY COLLEGE OF SOCIAL WORK (CoSW) is a renowned leader in higher education. Our mission is clear: Through rigorous research, excellence in instruction, and steadfast service, the CoSW works to improve the human condition. Always, in all ways.
As the states flagship university, CoSW is committed to actualizing our mission through innovative, accessible academic programming. CoSW is home to:
In addition to Lexingtons main campus, we have a satellite campus at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas.
To continue to advance our support infrastructure for CoSW, we invite applicants for a 12-month, non-tenure eligible, open rank position in the Clinical Title Series to begin as early as Fall 2025 or Spring 2026.
Primary duties associated with this position involve provision of instruction, training, and advisement for students across all academic programs housed in the College of Social Work. In addition, this position will be responsible for curriculum development of graduate-level programming.
Successful applicants will have experience teaching at the university level and demonstrated ability to effectively participate in scholarly activities.
The Universitys mission involves three primary functions across our faculty cohort: instruction, research, and service. Each year, faculty work with the Office of the Dean to delineate their distribution of effort (DOE). This DOE outlines how faculty will spend their time. In general, DOE for faculty members in the Clinical Title Series typically includes allocation in the area of instruction. Of course, the DOE can fluctuate depending on an array of factors (e.g., new course development, service to the college, etc.). While the DOE is reviewed on an ongoing basis, successful candidates are expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses.
It is expected that work in this faculty appointment, including but not limited to course instruction, office hours, administrative meetings, and attending college-wide events such as faculty meetings, will occur on-site.
