The Physical Therapy Division at The Ohio State University invites applications for a full-time tenure track faculty member with expertise in musculoskeletal physical therapy. Our mission is to advance the profession of physical therapy through education, scholarship, leadership, and service. Our vision is to be among the truly great physical therapy programs. To achieve these goals, we seek a candidate who has demonstrated excellence as a scholar, educator, and professional leader who will advance through the ranks as a faculty member.
Qualifications:
1. Research-based doctoral degree (PhD or equivalent), with a post-doctoral research fellowship preferred.
2. A history of scholarly excellence in orthopedics, biomechanics, neuromuscular rehabilitation, or related areas; a history of extramural grant funding is expected.
3. Ability to teach in the DPT curriculum in content pertaining to musculoskeletal-related rehabilitation and related areas of kinesiology, biomechanics, neuromuscular control, and rehabilitation. A willingness to teach as part of a team in an integrated curriculum is required.
4. Capability to mentor PhD students and contribute to teaching of advanced coursework in our Health and Rehabilitation Sciences PhD program.
5. Eligible for Ohio licensure as a physical therapist (if applicable). Candidates who do not have a clinical degree in physical therapy may be considered.
Salary and rank are negotiable and will be commensurate with qualifications and experience. Candidates who qualify for associate or full professor are highly preferred for this position, but an appointment at the assistant level may be considered for the candidate with an established funding and publication record that is indicative of sustained scholarly success. Laboratory space and a start-up package will be negotiated based on the candidate’s scholarship requirements and goals.
The OSU PT faculty includes successful scientists, master clinicians, and professional leaders with records of excellence in scholarship, teaching, professional service, and clinical practice. Each tenure track faculty has an extramurally funded research program, and all faculty members contribute to the science of practice. The program has the resources to support excellence in all mission areas.
Our DPT program is ranked in the top 20 nationally, and we have a strong and growing PhD program in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, including a DPT/PhD dual degree program. We are located in a major academic medical center and on a campus with the largest grouping of health sciences programs nationally. Our extensive university offers nearly limitless possibilities for collaboration and innovation. The Division of Physical Therapy is aligned with Ohio State’s Wexner Medical Center, OSU Sports Medicine, Dodd Rehabilitation Center, the Wright Center for Excellence in Imaging, and Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Columbus, the largest metropolitan center in Ohio, is very affordable and family-friendly, with a vibrant and diverse economy and culture.
Applications should be submitted to: John Borstad, PT, PhD, borstad.1@osu.edu Applications must include a letter of application describing qualifications and interest in the position, a curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references.
To build a diverse workforce, Ohio State encourages applications from individuals with disabilities, minorities, veterans, and women. EEO/AA employer.
