The mission of the USC Rossier School of Education is to prepare leaders to achieve educational equity through practice, research and policy. We work to improve learning opportunities and outcomes in urban settings and to address disparities that affect historically marginalized groups. We teach our students to value and respect the cultural context of the communities in which they work and to interrogate the systems of power that shape policies and practices. Through innovative thinking and research, we strive to solve the most intractable educational problems.

The Marriage and Family Therapy program seeks an instructor for Interrogating Systems of Inequity in Professional Practice for the Summer 2024 semester. In this course, students examine themselves and the field of professional practice in the context of achieving equity.
