Tenure-Track Faculty, UCLA Luskin Social Welfare

The Department of Social Welfare in the Luskin School of Public Affairs at UCLA invites applications for two full-time, tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professors with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2026. Tenure-track faculty have an annual service period of nine months from the end of September through mid-June. We plan to hire scholars in the areas of 1) Health and Aging and 2) Child and Family Well-Being. We seek faculty who bring new thinking and methods to these areas of research, teaching, community engagement, and applied social welfare knowledge. In both positions, we will prioritize a research agenda aligned with our departmental mission of advancing knowledge, practice, and policy for a just society.
