Waters College of Health Professions/Diagnostic & Therapeutic Sciences
The Department of Diagnostic & Therapeutic Sciences in the Waters College of Health Professions invites applications and nominations for the position of Lecturer in Radiography. The home campus for this position will be the Armstrong campus.
Georgia Southern University is a distinctive combination of Southern charm and uncompromising academics. We are a Carnegie Doctoral/R2 institution serving about 26,500 students through nine colleges on three beautiful oak-lined campuses in Statesboro, Savannah, Hinesville, and via a growing online program. Throughout its degree offerings at the associate's, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels, Georgia Southern cultivates community collaboration, world-class scholarship and hands-on learning opportunities.
Georgia Southern University was founded in 1906 as a school for teaching modern agricultural production techniques and homemaking skills to rural school children. Its Savannah campus was established in 1935 as Armstrong Junior College for local youth who could not afford to attend college away from home. The Liberty Center in Hinesville was established in 1998 to serve the military and their families at nearby Fort Stewart, the largest military base east of the Mississippi. All three locations came together in 2018 when Armstrong State University and Georgia Southern University consolidated. The "new" Georgia Southern University preserves a passion for serving its neighbors while preparing students for lifelong service as scholars, leaders, and responsible stewards of their communities.
Believing that diversity, equity, and inclusion contribute to excellence in the workplace and to the quality of the University's academic environment, Georgia Southern University is committed to recruiting and retaining diverse faculty and staff to support, promote, and serve a diverse student body and promote Inclusive Excellence.

Within this setting, the Department of Diagnostic & Therapeutic Sciences houses 18 full-time faculty and staff members serving nine programs within the Radiologic Science, Respiratory Therapy, and Medical Laboratory Science degrees. The program exists to educate students and to provide our culturally diverse communities with competent, team-oriented, and compassionate healthcare workers. It is a fully integrated department modeling interdisciplinary interaction based on real world application found in healthcare settings. This position will enhance the program's creative integration of technology with current and future course offerings.
