Position Description
The University of Arizona (UA) Physics Department invites applications for a non-tenure-track Assistant Professor of Practice (Teaching Faculty) starting in Spring or Fall 2026. The expected teaching load is two to three courses per semester (with a maximum of five per year), and salary will be commensurate with experience. We are looking for candidates who can motivate and inspire students using active learning and evidence-based approaches in the classroom. While teaching introductory physics will be the primary focus, the ability to teach upper-division courses in a variety of fields will be considered an advantage. The department takes pride in its collaborative teaching innovations, including grad discussion leaders, undergrad preceptors, and a dedicated space for workshop-style service courses. We seek candidates who would support and expand these approaches. All of our instructors, regardless of tenure-eligible status, have full participation in faculty meetings and in department life. Application reviews will begin on Sept. 15, 2025. Our intent is to hire for a start date in January 2026 (spring semester), but we are open to delaying the start to August 2026 (fall semester) depending on the progress of the search.We are not accepting applications for this job through AcademicJobsOnline.Org right now.
