Call for INITIAL Adjunct Lecturer Appointment applications
The deadline to submit your INITIAL application is February 18, 2026.
Note: As of 2023 academic year, Status-Only appointments at the rank of Lecturer are being phased out and only initial Adjunct Lecturer appointment applications are being offered and accepted (see below for further details). Therefore, candidates who had planned to apply for a Status-Only appointment should apply for an Adjunct Lecturer appointment.
The Department of Occupational Science and Occupational Therapy, Department of Physical Therapy, and Department of Speech-Language Pathology are currently accepting applications for INITIAL Adjunct Lecturer appointments. The review and approval process will take approximately three months from the application deadline date.
The academic goals of the Rehabilitation Sciences Sector cannot be met without the participation of talented individuals from many institutions and agencies outside of the university. The aim of adjunct appointments is to recognize the participation of highly qualified and dedicated researchers, practitioners and members of the community in the academic and clinical education components of the programs. These appointees augment the efforts and expertise of the full-time departmental faculty.
We are seeking appointees who:
maintain a high level of expertise and competence in their disciplines;
are skilled at communicating expertise to members of their respective disciplines and the broader health care community;
can stimulate, challenge and develop the scholarly and clinical capacity of students and
contribute to the growth of the discipline by building the body of knowledge or advancing the quality, efficiency and effectiveness of practice.
