Summary of Job Duties:

The Department of Audiology and Speech Pathology in the College of Health Professions at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) seeks a collaborative, innovative clinical faculty member to serve as the Second-Year Clinical Coordinator within the Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) program. This is an exciting opportunity for a creative, resourceful individual to join an established, high-quality program that enjoys strong institutional and community support while helping shape one of the nation's most innovative models of audiology clinical education. This is a 12-month faculty position located in Little Rock, Arkansas. Academic rank and salary are commensurate with qualifications and College promotion criteria.

The Second-Year Clinical Coordinator is a key member of the UAMS Au.D. Clinical Education Team, an innovative model that views clinical education as a longitudinal educational program rather than an administrative placement process. Serving as the developmental expert for second-year students, this faculty member will guide students as they transition from foundational clinical skills toward greater independence, advanced clinical reasoning, professional identity formation, and readiness for full-time externship.

Primary responsibilities include coordinating off-site clinical placements, teaching second-year practicum courses, supervising students within the UAMS Audiology Clinic, providing individualized clinical coaching and competency-based assessment, and collaborating with clinical faculty and community preceptors to promote student success. The faculty member will also contribute to ongoing innovation in clinical education, preceptor development, curriculum alignment, and continuous quality improvement.

Reporting:
The faculty member will report directly to the Program Director of the Doctor of Audiology Program and will participate as a member of the Clinical Education Team. Annual performance evaluations will be conducted by the Program Director.



The Program
The UAMS Doctor of Audiology Program is a continuous 11-semester, full-time, in-person professional degree program located in Little Rock, Arkansas. The program accepts new students once a year beginning in August and finishing four years later in May.

The program strives to prepare audiologists in a broad range of didactic knowledge and clinical skills to encompass the broad audiological scope of practice. The program also strives to educate students so they can function autonomously providing high-quality and compassionate hearing and balance care to diverse patient populations.

This is a cohort-based full-time program with a lock-step curriculum. Students must complete all courses each semester and be in good standing to continue to the next semester. The first 8 semesters of the curriculum consist of an intensive didactic phase which includes classroom learning, clinical laboratory, seminars, patient simulation, service learning and clinical patient encounters at on- and off-campus clinical affiliates.

The final three semesters of the program are a full-time (minimum of 32 hours per week) clinical rotation that takes place at a clinical location that the student has applied to, interviewed for and been extended an offer from

Setting
The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is the only academic health sciences university in the state of Arkansas and the state’s largest public employer with more than 12,000 employees in 73 of Arkansas’ 75 counties. UAMS offers 64 professional and specialist degree programs and certificates through our Colleges of Health Professions, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Public Health and Graduate School. The campus offers state of the art library and clinical simulation facilities. Programs at the campus are designed to promote inter-professional learning and clinical experiences.

Application Process
Application with a current curriculum vitae, a letter of application, and at least three professional references is currently being accepted via the UAMS Jobs Portal. References will only be contacted for semi-finalists. Evaluation of application will begin immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
