    I am excited to announce that we have five positions at the University of Tennessee Knoxville College of Social Work (UTCSW). Come join a university on the rise, with a growing student body, vibrant campuses in Knoxville and Nashville, and an outstanding social work research and practice faculty, staff, and students!

    With over 850 students enrolled in undergraduate, MSSW, DSW, and PhD programs in Knoxville, Nashville, and online, the UTCSW is preparing highly skilled and culturally sensitive social workers to address areas of need across the state, the country, and the globe. We are also looking for qualified candidates who will help the UTCSW move forward in our commitment to anti-oppressive practice, equity, inclusive excellence, and social justice. We are committed to education, scholarship, and service that together move the needle on the social and economic problems that disproportionately affect under resourced and minoritized populations. We are also committed to creating a college culture where all people can thrive.

    Two positions are advanced, tenure track faculty-one endowed professor in mental health research, two are for administrative positions, and one is for a tenure-track assistant professor. The links to the position ads are below:
