Job Description
The Bursky School of Public Health is interested in bringing together excellent interdisciplinary scholars and scientists, creating distinction in educational programming, and improving health locally and globally. The school has infrastructure, particularly the Public Health Action Labs, funded as part of the school’s naming gift, that creates the functional capacity—through policy development, economic analysis, communication, and implementation—to allow ideas to become action that improves the health of the public. All faculty are also supported by an Office of Innovation that works with faculty on enterprise development, the creation of an innovation ecosystem, and provides support with their data and analysis to the end of producing science of consequence. We are looking for a few outstanding scholars who align with an envisioned future where we promote longer, healthier lives, engage with the full range of determinants of health, are concerned with the building of better systems to promote health, are committed to the adoption of and evolution of new technologies to public health, and see better health communication as part of the future of better public health. Named professorships may be available for candidates at the appropriate rank. If this appeals to you, please reach out; we would enjoy a conversation.
Application Process
All potential candidates are encouraged to submit a cover letter that specifies the position of interest and how their background makes them suited for the position. Questions may be directed to SPHFacultyAffairs@wustl.edu.
