Position Summary: The Department of APHCS seeks two dynamic and collaborative scholars who will contribute to the continued growth and national visibility of our undergraduate and graduate programs. Successful candidates will develop and sustain an independent line of research, provide outstanding teaching and mentorship, and engage in service activities that advance the mission of the department, college, university, and profession.

They will be expected to actively mentor and engage students in research, experiential learning, community engagement, and workforce development while fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment.
The faculty members will establish a productive program of scholarship in exercise science or a related field, conduct and publish original research, and seek funding to support their independent research agenda. Candidates must possess expertise sufficient to teach exercise physiology and/or related courses. Additional expertise in advanced exercise physiology, clinical exercise physiology, strength & conditioning, nutrition, and/or interprofessional education is highly preferred and will receive special consideration.
