Individuals in this role typically have significant real-world expertise in their field and are often responsible for teaching, mentoring, and developing curriculum that bridges theory and practice. Unlike tenure-track professors, Professors of Practice may have different expectations for research and service, focusing more on applied learning and industry engagement. This position is common in fields such as business, engineering, law, and the arts.

To thrive as an Assistant Professor of Practice, you need subject matter expertise, a relevant advanced degree (often a master's or doctorate), and significant professional experience in your field. Familiarity with learning management systems (such as Canvas or Blackboard) and current industry-standard tools is typically required. Strong communication, mentorship, and collaboration skills help foster student engagement and effective teamwork with faculty. These abilities ensure high-quality, practical instruction and prepare students for real-world professional challenges.

How does an assistant professor of practice typically collaborate with industry partners or external organizations?

Assistant Professors of Practice often build partnerships with industry professionals to bring real-world experience into the classroom and enrich student learning.

Assistant Professors of Clinical Practice are eligible for multi-year appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30). Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July-June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off. Associate and full Professors of Clinical Practice hold indefinite appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30). Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July-June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off.

The successful candidate will be expected to participate in clinical care, education, and to participate in scholarship at an outstanding academic center, as all University of Washington faculty on the Clinical Practice track engage in service, teaching, and research.
The Division of Neonatology has three primary areas of research focus: bench to bedside neonatal neuroprotection/neuroscience, simulation as an educational and clinical competency tool, and global neonatal-perinatal health. We also have an outstanding ethics program at the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics. Candidates will be considered across a range of interests. Positive factors for consideration include, but are not limited to, a completed US-accredited pediatric neonatology residency and pediatric neonatology fellowship program, and Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) certification. The Division of Neonatology has an outstanding fellowship training program, robust clinical/translational and basic research, and provides clinical care at two academic level IV NICUs and several regional level III NICUs. Our mission is to improve the outcome of pregnancy by advancing neonatal scholarship, educating the next generation of neonatal caregivers, and by providing outstanding evidence based neonatal clinical care. All our faculty contribute to this mission. The Seattle-Tacoma/South Puget Sound region is widely recognized as one of the most desirable locations in the US to live and work, with a wide spectrum of cultural, educational, and sporting events, and with year-round recreational opportunities for boaters, hikers, bikers, and skiers-to name but a few!
