Audiology Faculty Position (Assistant or Associate Professor)

The Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences (SLHS) at the University of Florida is recruiting one (1) Audiology faculty position at the assistant or associate professor rank. This full‑time (1.0 FTE), tenure‑track, 12‑month position is expected to start in Fall 2025. Successful candidates will demonstrate expertise in any area of audiology or hearing sciences, with a preference for research or clinical practice that emphasizes psychoacoustics, cochlear implants, medical audiology, and/or hearing conservation.

The ideal candidate will demonstrate a commitment to excellence in teaching, mentoring, research, and service in a dynamic academic health‑center environment. The department is committed to hiring and supporting candidates who will contribute both collaboratively and independently to externally funded research. Candidates will be principal investigators of extramural funded research projects or demonstrate potential to develop such a record. Candidates will be expected to teach upper‑division undergraduate and graduate‑level courses that support audiology and hearing sciences, and will also engage in a range of service activities including student mentorship and participation on departmental and college committees.

SLHS is one of eight departments in the College of Public Health and Health Professions (PHHP) and is well integrated within the UF Health Science Center, offering faculty a wealth of opportunities for scholarly collaborations. The department offers three degrees:
Doctor of Audiology (AuD), Master of Arts in Communication Sciences and Disorders (speech‑language pathology), and Bachelor of Health Science in Communication Sciences and Disorders. Faculty members have access to a college‑level instructional design team that provides expert support in course development and delivery.

• PhD in audiology, hearing sciences, or a closely related field.

• AuD and PhD in audiology, hearing sciences, or a closely related field.
• Possession of or eligibility for the American Speech‑Language‑Hearing Association (ASHA) Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC).
• Strong interpersonal and organizational skills and effective written and oral communication skills.
• For hire at the associate professor level, a strong track record of extramural grant funding is essential. For hire at the assistant professor level, the ability to develop such a record is required.

Qualified candidates must submit an application, which includes a current curriculum vitae (CV), a cover letter that describes teaching, research, service, and career interests, and contact information for three references. Application review will begin immediately and continue until a suitable applicant pool has been established. Final candidates will be required to provide an official transcript to the hiring department upon hire.

Transcripts will not be considered “official” if a designation of “Issues to Student” is visible. Degrees earned from an institution outside the United States must be evaluated by a professional credentialing service provider approved by the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES).

Expected salary is negotiable. The University of Florida offers an exceptional benefits package, including health, dental, and vision insurance; state retirement plans; a generous leave program; tuition assistance; and eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF).
