Department Summary
The College of Education (COE) at the University of Oregon is a
community of leading researchers and practitioners dedicated to
transformational scholarship, integrated teaching, and
collaborative practice designed to enhance individual lives and
systems within a culture that values diversity and promotes respect
and inclusion.
The COE is home to 3 academic departments, 16 academic degree
programs, 14 research and outreach units, the HEDCO Institute, and
the HEDCO Clinic. All academic departments house both graduate and
undergraduate programs addressing the full range of issues present
in educational and social systems. Our tenure-track and career
non-tenure track faculty in each department are devoted to
inspiring and mentoring the approximately 1,500 undergraduate and
graduate students who will be the next generation of educational
and social science leaders. The COE has a long record of developing
widely adopted, evidence-based assessments and interventions that
serve millions of children in thousands of schools across the
country and the world. Our faculty, staff, and students also have
one thing in common: A spirit of discovery and dedication to
creating positive change with the goal of a more equitable,
educated, and healthy tomorrow.
Diversity and inclusion are core values at the College of
Education. Our goal at the College of Education is to set our
graduates on career-long paths to purposeful, reflective, creative,
and meaningful careers; addressing inequity and racial injustice is
a thread that runs through our majors and programs while focusing
on critical and effective pedagogies. We are committed to building
and sustaining an inclusive and equitable working and learning
environment for all students, staff, and faculty. We believe every
member of our college contributes to the enrichment of our college
community by exposing us to a broad range of ways to understand and
engage with the world, identify challenges, and discover, design,
and deliver solutions.
The Department of Special Education and Clinical Sciences is one of
3 academic departments in the College of Education. It is comprised
of 4 major programs: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Communication
Disorders and Sciences (CDS), School Psychology (SPSY), and Special
Education (SPED). The Department offers degrees from undergraduate
to master's and doctoral, as well as licensure and endorsement
programs. The Special Education and Clinical Sciences Department is
involved in collaborative efforts among all COE departments and
institutes to support research across the College, outreach
activities, and core requirements for the master's and doctoral
programs.
The CDS program is dedicated to preparing students to understand,
assess, and treat individuals across diverse ethnic, cultural,
linguistic, social and economic backgrounds experiencing challenges
in speech, language, literacy, communication, cognition, and
swallowing. The program is dedicated to achieving excellence by
integrating clinical and classroom education, the generation and
application of research, and the provision of community outreach.
We train leaders through our values of inclusion, critical
thinking, freedom of inquiry, and social justice.
Position Summary
The University of Oregon's Communication Disorders and Sciences
program in the College of Education seeks to create a pool of
qualified candidates to fill periodic instructional and supervision
vacancies. Positions are limited duration appointments, potentially
renewable for up to a total of three years. All faculty are
expected to contribute to the equity and inclusion goals of the
program and college and incorporate inclusive practices into their
work.
Instructional faculty may teach at the undergraduate or graduate
level. Instructional duties include course preparation, teaching,
preparation and evaluation of students assignments and exams, and
maintenance of office hours. Course content areas for teaching
responsibilities may include anatomy and physiology of the speech
mechanism, neuroscience of speech and language, acquired disorders,
adult language disorders, motor speech disorders, brain injury and
cognitive rehabilitation, speech sound disorders, voice disorders
and other core CDS related courses.
Clinical supervisors will provide clinical instruction and/or
supervision in clinical or professionally-related community
education/service settings to CDS students. Clinical faculty focus
their training and instruction on the practical application of
skills necessary to engage in a given profession. They are expected
to demonstrate and share the expertise of their practice and to
contribute to coordination roles within these settings or for the
program.
Applicants should be aware that while some instructional
assignments may be approved for remote delivery, other courses and
supervision responsibilities require in-person availability at the
campus in Eugene, OR.
Given the unique ways in which individuals from historically
marginalized racial and ethnic groups, sexual- and
gender-monitories, students with disabilities, and persons with
immigrant, language learner, and/or low-income status have been
poorly served, we strongly encourage members of such groups to
apply for this position. Evidence suggests that people self-select
out of positions due to concerns over failure to meet minimal
requirements; we strongly encourage such applicants to apply even
if they are uncertain about their qualifications.
