Associate/Full Professor And Assistant/Associate Professor: Tulane University
Location: New Orleans, Louisianna, USA
The Department of Health Systems Management at the Tulane University School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine is recruiting for two tenure/tenure-track positions, one at the Associate/Full Professor level and the other at the level of Assistant/Associate Professor (academic rank to be determined based on qualifications and experience). The successful candidates will be expected to develop and maintain a strong program of research with extramural funding in an area consistent with the Department’s mission. Starting salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience.
Associate/Full Professor
The Department of Health Systems Management is joining with the RAND Corporation to offer a unique opportunity to a promising researcher at the Associate or Full Professor level. He/she will collaborate with colleagues from RAND (both in its Gulf States Research Institute office in New Orleans and its offices elsewhere) to conduct research on topics of mutual interest and to develop externally funded research. The selection committee will give preference to applicants with an earned doctoral degree in the area of health economics, health policy research, health services research, health outcomes or health operations research, or related disciplines; strong methodological and applied econometric skills; a demonstrated record of publication in peer reviewed journals; and teaching experience at the graduate level. We encourage application by candidates with broad national policy research interests, but would particularly value candidates with research interests that are relevant to the states bordering the Gulf of Mexico (Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, and Florida). Promising applicants will undergo a parallel interviewing process with both the Department of HSM and at the RAND Corporation.
Assistant/Associate Professor
In addition, the Department is recruiting a tenure-track professor at the Assistant or Associate level. The selection committee will give preference to applicants with an earned doctoral degree in the area of health policy, health economics, health services research, health outcomes, health operations research or related disciplines in a domestic or international context; strong methodological skills; publication in peer reviewed journals; and teaching experience at the graduate level. In addition, he/she will teach in the Department’s academic programs, mentor and advise students, participate on doctoral committees, and serve on other School committees. Applicants will be evaluated on their achievement to date and potential in the areas of research, publication, and teaching.
