Open-Rank Tenure-Track Faculty Positions in Social Work


Location: Philadelphia, PA
Open Date: Aug 15, 2022
Deadline:

The University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy & Practice (SP2) invites applications for tenure-track appointments to begin July 1, 2023.

SP2 seeks social work scholars to contribute to one or more of its four MSW curriculum sequences: clinical practice, HBSE, social policy, and social work research. The School seeks candidates with innovative programs of research and teaching excellence. Given the School's commitment to advancing social justice in all of its programs, the successful candidate will have a demonstrated interest in antiracism and anti-oppressive practice, education, and research.

A doctorate in social work or a closely related field (completed prior to the start of the appointment) is required for all applicants. An MSW from an accredited school of social work and at least two years of post-MSW practice experience is required for candidates applying for a position in clinical practice; MSW is preferred for all others.

While this search is focused on faculty members whose primary responsibilities will be in the MSW program, we welcome candidates with the capacity for and interest in working across the school's three master's programs (Social Policy, Social Work, Nonprofit Leadership), as well its two doctoral programs (Doctorate in Clinical Social Work, and Ph.D. in Social Welfare).

Many opportunities for collaboration exist within the wider University of Pennsylvania academic community, as well as with health, educational, social service, nonprofit, and government organizations regionally, nationally, and globally.

Please submit the following materials through our online application system:
  • CV.
  • Cover letter.
  • Research statement that includes current activities and future plans.
  • Teaching statement that includes identification of SP2 courses of interest.
  • DEI statement.
  • Three samples of scholarly writing.
  • Contact information for three references.

Formal review of applicants will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled. Please contact Dr. Yoosun Park (yoosunp@upenn.edu) for further information.
