Assistant/Associate/Full Professors Positions

 

The College of Health Solutions at Arizona State University invites applications for two full-time, tenure-track faculty positions in Communication Sciences and Disorders: one at the Assistant Professor rank and one at the Associate/Full Professor rank. These positions have an anticipated start date of August 2026, with flexibility to negotiate a later start date if needed. Effective August 16, 2026, the College of Health Solutions will include three new schools: School of Human Performance and Lifespan, School of Clinical Sciences, and the School of Health Systems Transformation. It is expected that these positions’ academic and tenure home will be within the School of Clinical Sciences.

 

We seek scholars with demonstrated excellence or exceptional promise in their area(s) of study. Successful candidates will be expected to develop and sustain an externally visible program of research and scholarship; contribute to excellence in graduate and undergraduate teaching; mentor students and trainees; and engage in service and leadership appropriate to rank. Senior candidates will be expected to provide intellectual leadership, strengthen national visibility, and contribute to the strategic growth of the program through collaboration and high-impact academic and research initiatives.

 

Preferred areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, language and literacy development/disorders, auditory, language, and cognitive neuroscience, early child development, pediatric and lifespan autism, biological contributors to development, genetics, and related areas in communication sciences and disorders.

 

Innovative interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary scholarship, particularly work that advances child-relevant and translational research, education, and/or clinical practice, is especially valued.

 

At ASU and the College of Health Solutions, we work to maximize opportunities for people of varied backgrounds, abilities and perspectives. We value and encourage inclusive excellence as outlined in our ASU Charter, and strive to foster a welcoming and inclusive environment for all faculty, staff and students — which we believe is critical to our success as a community. All individuals who can strengthen our academic community are encouraged to apply, and will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other basis protected by law.
