About The Position

The Frank H. Netter MD School of Medicine at Quinnipiac University is seeking multiple full-time faculty members for the Department of Medical Sciences. This department is central to the school's innovative medical education curriculum. Faculty will be involved in shaping the first two years of a systems-based, integrated pre-clerkship curriculum. The role involves collaborating with colleagues to design, deliver, and evolve an educational experience that prepares future physicians for practice. The university is looking for educators and scholars passionate about teaching, mentorship, and interdisciplinary collaboration. These are full-time (1.0 FTE), benefits-eligible, on-ground positions. The rank will be Assistant or Associate Professor, commensurate with experience. For clinical faculty, reduced FTE appointments may be considered.

This is an opportunity to join a growing medical school, contribute to a forward-looking curriculum, and impact medical education and student success.
