St. Mary's College of Maryland is accepting applications for the tenure track position of Assistant Professor and Internship Coordinator in its newly approved Masters of Arts in Counseling and Clinical Psychology (MACCP) program, beginning August 2027. The MACCP program is the second Masters program at SMCM (following the successful Master of Teaching program). The salary range for this position is $75,000 to $79,000 based on level of experience; startup costs are negotiable; benefits information is available online.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
The standard teaching load is 12 credits (usually, the equivalent of 3 courses) per semester. The Internship Coordinator will be in charge of preparing for internship placements (which is built into the teaching load). Teaching responsibilities will include courses in the Master of Arts in Counseling and Clinical Psychology program (e.g., Psychopathology and Diagnosis, Multicultural Counseling, Lifespan Development, Group Counseling, Psychological Testing, Family Systems in Practice), as well as the possibility of undergraduate courses in your area of specialization to provide cross-program collaboration with the Psychology major.
At SMCM, we seek faculty whose pedagogical practice involves culturally responsive teaching practices that promote belonging and inclusion. New faculty are paired with mentors to support your growth as a teacher-scholar. In addition, we offer start-up funding to support your research, especially encouraging projects that relate to the training of psychotherapy practitioners. Over time, professors take on roles in services to the program and College to support the College's mission; first-year faculty are exempt from college-wide committee work.
Non-sectarian since its founding, St. Mary’s College of Maryland, a public Carnegie Baccalaureate, Arts and Sciences institution located in St. Mary's City, 70 miles southeast of Washington, D.C., has been designated a national public honors college. With selective admissions policies, academically talented students, and a rigorous curriculum, we offer a small college experience similar to that found at exceptional private colleges. St. Mary’s faculty benefit from a comprehensive program of support for scholarship, research, travel, and curriculum development, including course releases for pretenure faculty and leaves for tenured faculty. The quality of life is enhanced by the recreational opportunities of the Chesapeake region and by our proximity to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- Ph.D. in Counseling or Clinical Psychology or related field (ABD acceptable at the time of application)
Employment will be contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background check.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
St. Mary’s College embodies diversity and inclusion in its mission. We create an environment that recognizes the value of individual and group differences and we encourage inquiries from applicants who will contribute to our cultural and ethnic diversity.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Application materials should include a cover letter (which should speak to ways in which the candidate's teaching will contribute to the training of Masters students in counseling and clinical psychology), curriculum vitae (including email address), statement of teaching philosophy, statement of research interests, and evidence of teaching effectiveness if available (e.g., teaching evaluations, observation notes). We request three professional references (rather than letters of recommendation) at the time of application. Of these three references, at least one referee should speak to the candidate's disciplinary expertise, and at least one should have seen the candidate deliver or design classroom instruction. References will be contacted only for candidates who advance to finalist interviews. Applications are being accepted online, with reviews starting September 1, 2026 and continuing until the position is filled.
Questions may be directed to Dr. Libby Nutt Williams at enwilliams@smcm.edu.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding J-1 Visa Sponsorship as an Account Coordinator
Match your J-1 category before applying
Current students pursuing account management coursework qualify under the Intern category. Professionals who have graduated within the past 12 months and have relevant work experience apply under Trainee. Applying under the wrong category delays your DS-2019 issuance.
Build a training plan around account work
Designated sponsors require a detailed Training Plan (DS-7002) before issuing your DS-2019. Document specific account coordination tasks, such as client onboarding workflows, CRM platform training, and campaign reporting cycles, tied to measurable weekly learning objectives.
Target host employers with structured onboarding programs
Marketing agencies, PR firms, and media companies with formal rotational or onboarding programs are more likely to commit to the host employer documentation J-1 requires. Search for roles mentioning structured training, mentorship, or professional development in the job description.
Find J-1-aligned account roles on Migrate Mate
Filter your search on Migrate Mate to surface Account Coordinator positions at companies familiar with international exchange visitor programs. This narrows your pool to employers already comfortable with host employer obligations and DS-7002 co-signing.
Clarify the 2-year home residency requirement early
Some J-1 Trainee participants from countries with bilateral exchange agreements are subject to a 2-year home residency requirement before switching to H-1B visa or a green card. Confirm your eligibility with the designated sponsor before accepting an offer.
Get your offer letter to reflect training, not just employment
Designated sponsors scrutinize offer letters to confirm the role is genuinely educational. Ask hiring managers to frame the letter around skills development and supervision structure rather than standard employment terms, which smooths sponsor approval.
Account Coordinator J-1 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Which J-1 program category fits an Account Coordinator role?
Account Coordinator positions typically fall under the J-1 Intern category if you are currently enrolled in a degree program or graduated within the past 12 months, or the Trainee category if you have graduated and have relevant professional experience. The Intern category caps the program at 12 months, while Trainee programs can run up to 18 months.
Who actually sponsors my J-1 visa for an account coordinator job?
The visa sponsor is a U.S. Department of State-designated organization, such as Cultural Vistas, CIEE, or AIPT, not your hiring company. The employer acts as the host organization and co-signs your training plan, but the designated sponsor issues the DS-2019 form, monitors your program compliance, and holds legal responsibility for your exchange visitor status.
How do I find account coordinator employers open to J-1 hosting?
Migrate Mate lets you search Account Coordinator roles and filter for employers with international hiring experience, making it easier to identify host companies already familiar with J-1 program obligations. Marketing agencies, public relations firms, and integrated communications companies are among the employer types most often willing to take on the host employer paperwork.
What does the DS-7002 training plan need to include for this role?
The DS-7002 must detail the specific account coordination skills you will develop, the tools and platforms you will train on, supervision structure, and phase-by-phase learning objectives. Vague descriptions like general office work are rejected. Sponsors expect content tied to concrete professional competencies, such as client communication protocols, project tracking, and campaign performance analysis.
Can I extend my J-1 status or change to another visa after my program ends?
J-1 Trainee programs can be extended within the 18-month maximum if the designated sponsor approves and the additional training is justified. Changing to H-1B or another work visa after your J-1 ends may be restricted if you are subject to the 2-year home residency requirement, which applies to certain nationalities and program types. Confirm your situation with your designated sponsor before making post-program plans.
