The Division of Occupational Therapy at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) seeks to fill a 12-month tenure-track faculty position, rank commensurate with experience. The faculty member will have primary duties devoted to development of his/her independent, extramurally funded research program and scholarly activity. Additional responsibilities will include teaching in the MSOT (ACOTE accredited) educational program and Health and Rehabilitation Science Doctoral program.

Start-up resources are available.
