Associate Professor, Health Management (undergraduate) and Health Administration (graduate) programs in the College of Public Affairs.
The School of Health and Human Services invites applications for an Associate Professor faculty position for its B.S. program in Health Management and M.S. program in Health Administration to begin in September 2024 (contingent on final budget approval).

The Candidate should have experience as an academic program director and be able to assume responsibility as program director for the graduate Health Administration program. Although the scholarly specialization for this position is open, individuals who contribute expertise related to health management and administration, health policy and politics, health finance and economics, quality performance and improvement, and health information systems will be given special consideration. Evidence of teaching effectiveness and course development related to the above-mentioned areas will be viewed favorably. Experience with synchronous online teaching using Zoom and/or Teams will be given special preference, as will experience with asynchronous instruction using leading content management platforms. The University currently uses Canvas as its teaching platform. Successful candidates will be expected to teach six courses per academic year (3 per semester).

Candidates with expertise in the above-mentioned areas are encouraged to apply. Candidates should have a record of scholarly activities appropriate to the rank of appointment and demonstrate capacity for quality university instruction and service to the profession and the university. The successful candidate will be joining a well-established undergraduate program in Health Management (certified by AUPHA) and graduate program in Health Administration. Experience with certification of undergraduate and graduate programs will be given special consideration.
The undergraduate and graduate programs are designed to educate students about the workings of the health care industry with the goal of assuming management level positions upon graduation. Students in the undergraduate program are non-traditional and most have backgrounds in health care. Graduate students also have health care backgrounds with many already performing at a management level.
