Faculty Recruitment

VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF NURSING seeks highly qualified faculty to teach in its MSN and PhD in Nursing Science programs. Vanderbilt has a long history of a tri-partite mission of research, teaching, and practice, and faculty are encouraged to expand their expertise in these areas. Fields of study in the doctoral program emphasize research on broad areas of quality of life and quality of care. Master's degree programs include: Nurse-Midwifery; Health Systems; Health Systems with a focus on Clinical Management; and a variety of nurse practitioner specialties including Acute Care; Family; Neonatal; Adult; Gerontological; Pediatric; Psychiatric-Mental Health; and Women's Health. Faculty must hold a master's degree in nursing; a doctorate in nursing or related discipline with an active program of research is preferred. Doctorally-prepared nurse practitioners and/or minority candidates are especially encouraged to apply. All faculty positions are 12-month appointments, and benefits packages are exceptional. Applicants for faculty positions should initially submit a cover letter and resume or curriculum vitae to:
