Female and ethnic minority candidates are encouraged to apply.

A unique aspect of RTS’s MAC program is the on-campus clinical internship experience offered to its students. Under the supervision of professionals, students counsel persons from diverse local communities in individual, couple, family, and group settings.

The MAC program is seeking applicants with significant teaching and clinical experience who can bring practical expertise to the classroom. Preferred candidates will demonstrate a strong commitment to the integration of counseling and Christian theology.
