The Physical Therapy Program at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse (UW-L) seeks applicants for a 12-month tenure-track appointment (associate/assistant professor) with primary responsibilities in the instruction of prosection/dissection-based anatomy for physical therapy, occupational therapy, physician assistant and nurse anesthesia students. The PT program is part of the Department of Health Professions. All programs in the Department of Health Professions http://www.uwlax.edu/sah/health-professions/, College of Science and Allied Health are fully accredited and include:
* Physical therapy: currently awards a masters entry-level degree and is seeking authorization to implement an entry-level DPT degree;

The Department of Health Professions is located in a $27 million state-of-the-art Health Science Center (HSC) built by the La Crosse Medical Health Science Consortium, which consists of five La Crosse organizations: 2 universities (UW-L; Viterbo); Western Wisconsin Technical College; and two medical centers (Gundersen/Lutheran and Franciscan Skemp Health Care - Mayo Health System).
The University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, founded in 1909, is one of 13 four-year campuses in the University of Wisconsin System.

Twenty-one graduate programs are available. About 8,000 students attend classes on the compact, 119-acre campus.

Located approximately 2 ½ hours from Minneapolis to the northwest and Madison, Wisconsin to the southeast, La Crosse enjoys small-town charm with larger city benefits. Densely-wooded coulees (gorges between bluffs), three rivers, and lush marsh provide prime locales for running, skiing, hunting, fishing, skating, boating, camping, biking and other outdoor pursuits.
