The Department of Health, Exercise, and Sport Studies (HESS) at Denison University invites applications from qualified exercise scientists and/or physiologists to fill an open rank, tenure-track position starting in fall 2026. Candidates must have completed a PhD in exercise science, kinesiology, human physiology, or a related field by the start date (in August 2026) as a requirement for this position (ABD will be considered as Instructor until Ph.D. is obtained). Rank and an accelerated tenure review timeline for currently-tenured faculty will be determined during the hiring process. We are seeking candidates who are enthusiastic about teaching at the undergraduate level and committed to continually refining and growing their pedagogy. The successful candidate will be expected to teach undergraduate courses in Applied Anatomy with lab, Foundations of Health and Exercise Science, and Exercise Physiology, as well as other courses according to the candidate's area of specialty (such as kinesiology, nutrition, or motor learning and control). Teaching load is five courses per year. The department and institution provide mentoring programs and support for teaching, including programs offered by the Center for Learning and Teaching. A successful candidate will also demonstrate the potential to run a successful research program at our institution in the field of health and exercise science (this could include, but is not limited to, research in exercise physiology, motor learning and control, or nutrition). Denison is dedicated to research as an important part of the intellectual lives of our faculty and students. As such, the research program should provide opportunities for undergraduate students to be involved in original research.

Please note, the research program may involve human subjects or animal models, but only non-mammalian and non-avian species can be housed on campus. The Department of Health, Exercise, and Sport Studies, a thriving and vibrant program with 30-40 graduates per year, is an academic community in which students receive ongoing professional mentorship and engagement throughout the undergraduate experience. Our objective is to facilitate an intellectual environment that considers the inseparable roles of human movement, health, and sport as fundamental parts of the human experience. The department values collaboration among our students and faculty, as well as other disciplines on campus, such as Physics, Neuroscience, Biology, Global Health, and Data Analytics. Faculty are expected to actively contribute to service activities outside of the classroom and laboratory at the level of the department, institution, and larger community. Denison seeks candidates who will contribute to a vibrant academic community characterized by open inquiry, robust debate, and mutual respect. We value faculty who design learning environments that actively engage students in examining questions from multiple, and sometimes competing, perspectives. Our classrooms aim to foster critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and the capacity to engage constructively across lines of difference, including differences in political or ideological commitments.
