STPH invites applications to establish a pool of instructional Academic Associates and Faculty Associates for the 2026/2027 academic year. Successful candidates will support online or in-person courses under the direction of STPH faculty, evaluate student work, communicate regularly with students and the instructional team and assist students with mastery of course objectives. STPH welcomes applications from candidates who align with the Arizona State University (ASU) Charter and are committed to excellence and student success.
Faculty Associate and Academic Associate positions are one semester (8 or 16 weeks), non-benefits-eligible, and fixed-term appointments with no tenure implications, not to exceed .40 full-time equivalency (FTE). Individuals hired must be available for the entire duration of the appointment (8 or 16 weeks). The number of courses is contingent upon needs, funding, and sufficient student enrollment. Individuals hired as Faculty Associates and Academic Associates may not hold multiple, non-benefits-eligible appointments at ASU. Salary is a flat rate based on FTE.
This recruitment is to establish a part-time hiring pool for temporary and semester appointments. Applications are considered for the current academic year only. Applicants who are not hired are encouraged to reapply for subsequent academic years.
The School of Technology for Public Health (STPH) is establishing a new field to reimagine public health infrastructure in the 21st century, and create more integrative, responsive, and resilient systems to protect the health of people in Arizona and beyond. Designed in collaboration with national leaders and informed by listening sessions with local communities and health departments, the school is the first of its kind in the nation to train students to be bilingual in public health and technology. By teaching students to be “techno-fluent,” the school serves as a catalyst to build and deploy the products, programs and systems needed to sculpt the future of public health in this decade and beyond.
STPH is part of an exciting, vibrant, and varied research, education, and practice community at ASU, which was named by U.S. News and World Report repeatedly as #1 in Innovation among all universities in the United States.
Arizona State University, ranked the No. 1 “Most Innovative School” in the nation by U.S. News & World Report for twelve years in succession, has forged the model for a New American University. Year after year, ASU ranks at or near the top of the list in areas that matter. ASU is a comprehensive public research institution, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves. 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. Through innovation and a commitment to accessibility, ASU has drawn pioneering researchers to its faculty even as it expands opportunities for qualified students, attracting some of the highest- quality students from all 50 states and more than 130 nations.
All we do at ASU is guided and inspired by the ASU Charter, which reads:
ASU is a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves.
Successful candidates will demonstrate throughout their materials how their teaching and service will contribute to the fulfillment of this Charter.
