<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"TradeGothicLTStd-Cn18",sans-serif">The Department of Child and Family Studies in the USF College of Behavioral and Community Sciences is seeking an Assistant/Associate Professor to join
its Rightpath Research and Innovation Center. The faculty of Rightpath employ cutting edge research methods to develop, evaluate, and disseminate tools, strategies, and programs that elevate the achievement and outcomes of vulnerable children. With a focus
on prevention, Rightpath faculty work to improve social-emotional development and academic achievement in young children who are at risk of poor outcomes due to limited English language proficiency, low socioeconomic status, unequal access to high quality
education programs and services, and communication, learning, behavioral, or intellectual disabilities. This is a tenure-earning 9-month Assistant/Associate faculty position. The position will include both research and teaching. Faculty in Rightpath teach
in a variety of graduate programs within the college. The role will include responsibilities for research and grant writing, advising graduate students, teaching, and departmental, university, and community service. The successful applicant must meet University
of South Florida criteria for appointment to the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor, including holding a doctoral degree from an accredited institution, experience in research and grant writing, and experience in university teaching. This position will
be part of the USF Tampa Campus.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
