Position

Title: CMHC Clinic Manager and Field Experience Coordinator

Department: CMHC

Status: Staff, 12‑month/Exempt

FTE: 0.5 if only Clinic Manager or only Field Experience Coordinator; 1.0 if both roles are filled

Founded in 1895, Bushnell University provides a holistic Christian education, fostering wisdom, faith, and service in its students. In joining the staff here, you will be part of an academic community that seeks to cultivate your faith while you make a difference in the lives of our students. Bushnell is the largest private university in Eugene’s vibrant university district, which also includes the University of Oregon.

Eugene is a college town small enough to know your neighbors and large enough to offer fantastic arts, entertainment, dining, healthcare, and educational opportunities. It is also an ideal place to enjoy the beautiful Pacific Northwest, being just one hour from the Oregon Coast, one hour from the Cascade Mountains, and less than two hours from Portland and the Columbia River Gorge.

The full‑time implementation of this position combines two major roles of Counseling Clinic Management and Student Clinical Field Experience Coordination. The Clinic Manager oversees Bushnell’s mental health clinic, which serves students and the Eugene area. As a program team member, the Clinical Field Experience Coordinator helps create and coordinate all CMHC student internship and practicum placements, supervising students who treat diverse clients.

The coordinator collaborates with the Director of the CMHC program, faculty, and staff to cultivate relationships with placement sites, maintain a productive work environment, and model professional communication. The position may be split into two half‑time positions if needed.
