INTRODUCTION
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 a Clinical Sales Manager
Align your credentials with specialty occupation standards
Your DS-2019 training plan must tie your degree and prior sales experience directly to clinical sales management. Document product training, territory management, and clinical education responsibilities explicitly. Gaps between your background and the host role slow sponsor review.
Target host employers with established J-1 programs
Medical device and pharmaceutical companies that routinely host international trainees already understand DS-2019 requirements and training plan obligations. Search for Clinical Sales Manager openings on Migrate Mate to surface employers with active J-1 visa hosting history.
Confirm your program category before outreach
If you hold a degree and at least one year of post-graduation clinical sales experience, the Trainee category fits. Current graduate or undergraduate students in business, life sciences, or healthcare administration qualify under the Intern category instead.
Prepare a detailed individual training plan
Designated sponsors like CIEE or Cultural Vistas require a phase-by-phase training plan before issuing your DS-2019. Outline specific competencies you'll develop, such as clinical product demonstrations, KOL engagement, and territory analytics, rather than submitting a generic job description.
Verify the two-year home residency requirement early
Certain nationalities and government-funded exchange participants are subject to a two-year home residency requirement under INA Section 212(e). Confirm your status with your designated sponsor before accepting a host offer, since it affects subsequent visa options like H-1B visa.
Coordinate offer timing with your sponsor's DS-2019 timeline
Your host employer's signed training plan must reach your designated sponsor with enough lead time to issue the DS-2019 before your program start date. Factor in sponsor processing windows, typically two to four weeks, when negotiating your start date with the hiring manager.
Clinical Sales Manager J-1 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Which J-1 program category applies to Clinical Sales Manager roles?
Most Clinical Sales Manager candidates qualify under the Trainee category, which requires a relevant degree and at least one year of post-graduation work experience in clinical sales, medical devices, or a related field. Current students completing a degree in business, life sciences, or healthcare administration may qualify under the Intern category instead, provided the role connects directly to their academic program.
Who actually sponsors the J-1 visa for a Clinical Sales Manager position?
The J-1 visa sponsor is a U.S. Department of State-designated organization, such as CIEE, Cultural Vistas, or AIPT, not the hiring employer. The medical device or pharmaceutical company where you work is the host organization. The designated sponsor issues your DS-2019, approves your training plan, and monitors program compliance throughout your exchange.
How do I find U.S. employers willing to host a J-1 Clinical Sales Manager trainee?
Search Migrate Mate to identify U.S. employers in medical devices, diagnostics, and pharmaceuticals that are open to international candidates and J-1 hosting arrangements. Because J-1 host status requires the employer to commit to a structured training plan and sponsor coordination, targeting companies already familiar with exchange visitor programs shortens the negotiation process significantly.
Does the two-year home residency requirement affect Clinical Sales Manager trainees?
It can. If your J-1 funding comes from your home country's government, if your home country appears on the State Department's Exchange Visitor Skills List, or if your program falls under a government-sponsored category, INA Section 212(e) may require you to return home for two years before changing to H-1B or permanent resident status. Confirm your status with your designated sponsor before accepting a host offer.
What should a Clinical Sales Manager's J-1 training plan include?
Your designated sponsor requires a phase-by-phase individual training plan that outlines specific skills and competencies you'll develop, not a copy of the job description. For clinical sales management, this typically includes structured phases covering clinical product training, field sales methodology, key opinion leader engagement, and territory performance analysis. Vague plans are the most common reason sponsors delay issuing the DS-2019.
