The Executive Associate Dean for Academics (EAD) serves as the chief architect and driver of academic growth and expansion for the MUSC College of Nursing. Reporting directly to the Dean and serving on the College's senior leadership team, the EAD leads the strategic design and execution of a statewide academic expansion agenda-developing new programs, delivery models, clinical and academic partnerships, and revenue-generating initiatives that are aligned with workforce demand and institutional priorities. This role is ideal for a bold, entrepreneurial academic leader with a proven track record of building programs, launching partnerships, and scaling innovation. The EAD is charged with converting the College's strategic vision into measurable results-through market intelligence, rigorous financial modeling, and stakeholder collaboration-while upholding the highest standards of academic quality, compliance, and operational integrity. The EAD will also provide executive oversight of the Associate Dean for Academics (ADA), who manages daily academic operations, curriculum, accreditation, and student services across all programs.
