About The Position

We are deeply committed to training social workers to think critically and intervene against cultural, social, political, and economic practices that do not advance human rights, justice, or the dignity and worth of every human being.

Responsibilities: We encourage applications from candidates of all specializations and areas of study. Ideal candidates for this position are invested in fostering inclusive, equitable environments for teaching and learning. Teaching opportunities will be in the BSW and MSW programs.
