Overview:

POSITION: Assistant/Associate Professor:

The Auburn University Physical Therapy (AUPT) Program in the School of Kinesiology seeks to hire two twelve-month tenure-track faculty members at the Assistant/Associate Professor rank with expertise in Physical Therapy (Anatomy, Orthopedics, Cardiorespiratory, Neurology, Pelvic Health) to begin in Spring/Summer 2027. These positions are a part of faculty members who will be hired at Auburn University and serve as the core faculty for the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Program. The program’s mission is to educate and train physical therapists emphasizing service among rural areas in Alabama and beyond.

The university’s commitment to excellence is outlined in the Auburn University Strategic Plan (https://ocm.auburn.edu/strategic_plan/). Review of applications will begin August 30th, 2026, and continue until the positions are filled.

If you are passionate about excellence and advocating for our communities, we invite you to apply to our developing DPT program. As a leader in the field, the School of Kinesiology has a long-standing commitment to creating an environment that welcomes individuals from all backgrounds, and we are dedicated to maintaining this culture as we build our DPT program. Housed in the school, the developing DPT program seeks contributions from those of different specialties who represent and advocate for the communities we serve. Auburn University is a land-grant university and houses the College of Nursing, Nutritional Sciences, College of Pharmacy, Speech-Language Pathology, Human Development and Family Science, and College of Veterinary Medicine. The Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine also resides on the Auburn campus and actively partners with colleges across the university. Interprofessional education is a strong foundation at AUPT with faculty and students training together as an interprofessional team across the curriculum. In addition, AUPT will host a faculty practice teaching clinic for students and faculty to practice and treat many of our communities’ most vulnerable populations. The DPT program is home to a high-tech anatomy simulation lab, two state-of-the-art clinical classrooms, and a dedicated active learning studio/classroom. Our curriculum is grounded in our mission and designed to produce competent and compassionate clinical physical therapists and to improve the health and well-being of all individuals through evidence-based practice, innovation, and advocacy.

The DPT program was granted Candidate for Accreditation status by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) in May 2025. On our current timeline, the developing program will receive initial accreditation in the spring of 2028. The program has currently matriculated its first and second cohorts (classes of 2028 & 29) and is accepting applications for its third cohort to matriculate in summer 2027.
