TENURETRACK FACULTY POSITIONS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL THERAPY
TEMPLE UNIVERSITY
The Department of Physical Therapy is undergoing considerable transformation as Temple
University engages in a strategic renaissance to become a primer research university over
the next several years. We are pleased to announce that two open rank tenure‐track faculty
positions are available. The department has a rapidly growing human neuromotor research
program. All of our research oriented faculty have joint appointments in various academic
departments and collaborate with faculty from the Departments of Engineering, Neurology,
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and Computer and Information Science to apply
technological advances to research in the areas of pediatrics, aging, and neurological
impairment. The department currently has two motion analysis laboratories that include a
state of the art virtual reality CAVE and computerized activity monitoring. Temple
University School of Medicine is currently developing a center for research in the area of
neural repair and rehabilitation, and access to patient populations is available through
Temple University Hospital and the Shriners Hospitals Pediatric Research Center.
We are seeking individuals with a track record of grant support and published research.
We are willing to consider hiring a collaborative team for the two positions.
Responsibilities will include maintaining an active research agenda, obtaining funding, and
teaching and mentoring graduate students in our research oriented PhD program. A
graduate degree (PhD or equivalent) is required. A degree and licensure in Physical
Therapy is not necessary. Post‐doctoral or evidence of research experience, particularly in
the areas of applied neuroscience or human motor control research, is an asset.
Academic rank and salary are commensurate with qualifications. Temple is an equal
opportunity, affirmative action employer. All nominations and those interested in applying
may submit a letter of application, curriculum vitae, and the names of three references to:
Dr. Emily Keshner
