Job Description

LaGrange College seeks to fill a tenure-track appointment in exercise science, with specialization in strength and conditioning, at the rank of assistant or associate professor beginning August 1, 2024.

LaGrange College seeks candidates with diverse backgrounds and perspectives. If you embrace our values of excellence, service, diversity, civility, and inclusion, and are committed to modeling those attributes in our community, we encourage you to submit your application for consideration.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to serve in exercise science, one of the largest major programs on campus and will be instrumental in offering a new exercise science concentration in strength and conditioning beginning in Fall 2024, and supervise and mentor undergraduate research projects in the field. Candidates should demonstrate a commitment to excellence in teaching, professional development, and institutional service, as well as an understanding of, and appreciation for, the mission of liberal arts institutions.

  • A diversity statement describing the candidate's experience with, and advocacy for, diversity, equity, and inclusion activities in the classroom and on campus
  • A statement of scholarly interests
  • Graduate and undergraduate transcripts (copies are fine at this point)
  • Contact information (only) for three professional references
Applications received by May 8, 2024, will receive full consideration, although the review of applications will continue until the position is filled.
