Summary of Job Duties:
The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health (COPH) Department of Health Policy and Management seeks a highly qualified candidate to fill a full-time, tenure-track position.
The primary responsibility for this position is to teach at least two courses each year in the CAHME-accredited MHA program; generate extramural funding to conduct and disseminate original research; advise and mentor graduate students; serve on college and university committees; participate in program assessment activities; and help ensure the success of our MHA program.
This position has no soft money conditions, but we do expect faculty to reach at least a minimum of 30% salary coverage within a few years of employment. An attractive incentive plan is available to provide bonuses for faculty who exceed 30% of their salaries from extramural funding. The successful candidate will receive a highly competitive salary offer and benefits package commensurate with experience and level of appointment.
The MHA program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education (CAHME). COPH was created in 2001 with a portion of the state’s tobacco settlement funds and was accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health in spring 2004 and remains accredited through 2028. As part of the state’s only academic health sciences center, the College enjoys close relationships with the UAMS Colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy, Nursing, and Health Professions, as well as the Arkansas Department of Health and the Arkansas Department of Human Services. Opportunities for collaboration also exist within UAMS’ centers of excellence: the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, the Donald W. Reynolds Institute on Aging with its network of seven satellite Centers on Aging across the state, the Stephens Spine Institute, the Psychiatric Research Institute, the Myeloma Institute, and the Translational Research Institute. UAMS also has a statewide presence through its eight Regional Programs sites (formerly called Area Health Education Centers) and a regional campus located in northwest Arkansas, offering ready access to populations across Arkansas. Opportunities also exist with other health care enterprises and universities across the state.
Little Rock, the state’s capital, is centrally located in the state on the Arkansas River (http://www.littlerock.com/).
