About The Position

The School of Nursing at the University of British Columbia - Vancouver campus invites applications from Nurse Practitioners for a full-time tenure-track Assistant Professor or tenured Associate Professor position. We are particularly interested in applicants with a program of research in primary health care and/or models of NP practice, but welcome applicants with relevant scholarship in all areas of advanced nursing practice.

The School of Nursing at UBC is the oldest university-based nursing program in Canada, with a global reputation for excellence in research, innovative teaching, and values rooted in health equity, social justice, and community engagement. Our Masters of Nursing-Nurse Practitioner program, which offers a generalist nurse practitioner focus with an emphasis on primary care, has expanded to help meet the needs of BC’s primary health care system.
