The Faculty of the School of Counseling and Counseling Psychology (SCCP) in the College of Integrative Sciences and Arts (CISA) at Arizona State University (ASU) invites applications for one tenure track assistant professor position, specifically with one of the two following research and professional interests – Sport Performance Counseling or K-12 school counseling.

The School of Counseling and Counseling Psychology (SCCP) is home to an APA-accredited PhD program in counseling psychology, a master’s program in clinical mental health counseling approved by the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners, and an undergraduate program that offers degrees in psychology (PSY) and counseling and applied psychological science (CAPS). The CAPS Bachelor of Science is one of the first in the nation at a large, public research institution. Our undergraduate programs are based at the Polytechnic campus; and courses are offered via ASU Online and at three metro area campuses—Polytechnic, Tempe, and Downtown. Currently, we have over 1,200 undergraduates declaring CAPS as their major and over 3,250 students enrolled in our classes each semester. We expect the demand for our undergraduate courses to keep growing as we expand the offering of CAPS courses on the Tempe and Downtown campuses and with the recent introduction of two new concentrations (“Sport & Performance Counseling” and “Counseling Military Members & Veterans”) that supplement our existing concentration in “Substance Abuse & Addictions.” A fourth concentration (“Sexuality & Gender Issues in Counseling”) has been approved and is under development.

We recently developed a specialization track in school counseling and are approved to develop a Spanish certificate program for mental health professionals. This year, we launched the online master’s program in mental health counseling and admit our inaugural cohort in Fall of 2024. SCCP offers a collegial faculty that emphasizes outstanding scholarship, teaching, clinical supervision, and professional service in the spirit of enhancing society. We are seeking scholars who embody ASU’s Charter of inclusion, use-inspired research, inclusive excellence and social embeddedness.

ASU operates on the principles that learning is a personal and original journey for each student; that they thrive on experience and that the process of discovery cannot be bound by traditional academic disciplines.
