  Indiana University is a highly regarded public research university. The undergraduate and graduate programs of the Department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences are ranked among the top in the nation. The Bloomington campus, home to approximately 42,000 students, is a one-hour drive south of Indianapolis. Our department is housed in a state-of-the art facility, the Regional Academic Health Center, with the Speech-Language and Hearing Clinics, numerous research laboratories, and is connected to the Bloomington hospital. The department also offers a preschool program aimed at supporting language development in preschool-aged children, including those who are typically developing, learning English as a second language, or experiencing communication delays. The proximity to the hospital and collocation with other units in the building (nursing, social work, and medical sciences) foster collaborations among faculty, provides interprofessional education for students, and facilitates patient-oriented research. The departmental climate is one of collaboration both within and across the SLHS disciplines, as many faculty co-teach courses and collaborate on research and community outreach. Bloomington is a collegial community with a vibrant arts and cultural scene, varied dining options, and scenic outdoor spaces.

  Salary is competitive and commensurate with level of experience and qualifications.
