Job description
Clinical Professor - Public Relations
The Communication Studies Department at Loyola Marymount University (LMU), Los Angeles, CA seeks applicants for a Clinical Assistant Professor in Public Relations. This is a full time, non-tenure track position beginning in Fall 2026.

The department would prefer to hire candidates with a Ph.D.; however, applicants must have at least a Master’s degree in Public Relations, or Communication Studies with expertise in Public Relations or a closely related field in hand at the time a contract is offered. Final appointment is dependent on a confirmed degree status. Applicants who have not yet completed their degree must demonstrate progress verifiable by evidence and substantive enough to ensure completion of their degree at the time of appointment.

Candidates should demonstrate an ability to enrich existing courses and develop new courses through innovative pedagogical approaches such as applied, experiential, community-based, or other inventive, critical, and anti-racist pedagogies.

Candidates must be trained and able to teach courses in Public Relations to support our Public Relations minor and will be expected to propose new upper division courses to expand our offerings in this area. An ability to also teach introductory courses in our Communication Studies curriculum is preferred. Application materials should clearly demonstrate the ability to teach anticipated courses in our curriculum. The teaching load for this position is 2/2 on a semester schedule.

Hired candidate will be required to advise students in the Public Relations Minor and to advise the LMU chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). Consequently, evidenced experience advising students is preferred (e.g. course selection, developing time to degree (or graduation) plans, and providing students with academic and career mentoring. Candidates with professional experience and skills comparable to academic advising (e.g., training and development) should articulate those experiences in their application materials in relation to their qualifications in Public Relations.

We value a diverse array of professional and practical experience in addition to the required academic qualifications. All candidates are invited to share how they meet the requirements of our position and inform our collective work as an academic community.

Application Details:

Completed applications will be reviewed beginning on January 16, 2026, and will continue until the position is filled. A complete application portfolio should be submitted as a single PDF. The portfolio should include: 1) a letter of application, 2) a current curriculum vitae, 3) unofficial transcripts, 4) evidence of teaching excellence (a two-page summary of teaching evaluative criteria, evaluator type such as students, advisors, employers, etc., and results).

Candidates should be prepared to submit the following materials upon request should they advance further in the search process: official transcripts, complete copies of original teaching evaluations (including qualitative comments) or other evaluations reflecting most recent years of university-level or equivalent teaching, a statement of teaching philosophy, sample syllabi related to the position, three letters of recommendation, and if the candidate does not have a Master’s degree, evidence of timeline and anticipated completion of their Ph.D.

Application Process:

All interested applicants MUST apply online at . Inquiries (including those regarding required materials) should be directed to Dr. Kyra Pearson, Search Committee Chair (). For full consideration, all materials should be received by January 16, 2026.
