Position Description
The School of Public Health at the University of California Berkeley invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor rank or a tenured position at the Associate Professor or Full Professor rank within the Division of Health and Policy Management (HPM).
We welcome applicants whose research, teaching, and service activities focus on technologies that improve quality of care, advance health equity, support the nation's innovation ecosystem, and help manage health care spending. Specifically, we encourage applicants who are interested in policy innovations and/or management strategies that influence the development, regulation, insurance coverage, pricing and payment, and appropriate utilization of such technologies to apply. We seek individuals with expertise in sectors such as biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, information technology and data science, digital tools and therapeutics, medical devices, gene sequencing and therapy, diagnostics, and the use of artificial intelligence for clinical decision support. This could be from a broad set of fields such as public policy, health services research, economics, political science, sociology, biomedical informatics, precision medicine, and management science.
The teaching expectation for this position is three courses per academic year. For tenure-track candidates, there is a ramp-up period. We are looking for individuals with mentoring and teaching interests and experience related to health technology policy management at the undergraduate and/or graduate levels. Tenure-track candidates will be assigned a senior faculty mentor through our Junior Faculty Mentoring Program and provided with career development, guidance, and training to ensure a pathway to success. There will also be an assignment of service commitments at the HPM divisional and school levels.
The School of Public Health and its Division of Health and Policy Management (HPM) offer the opportunity for interdisciplinary collaboration with distinguished faculty and researchers at UC Berkeley within the Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society (CITRIS), College of Computing, Data Science, & Society (CCDS), College of Engineering, Goldman School of Public Policy, Haas School of Business, and School of Law. The San Francisco Bay Area is a global hub for health technology innovation, and faculty will be able to collaborate with researchers at UCSF and other affiliated universities, technology startups and incubators, large biopharmaceutical and device firms, and global information technology and artificial intelligence firms.
The UC Berkeley School of Public Health recognizes the intrinsic relationship between diversity and excellence in all our endeavors. The School embraces open and equitable access to opportunities for learning and development as our obligation and goal. We seek candidates who demonstrate a commitment to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging through their research, teaching, and service.
The school is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents. We are also interested in candidates who have had non-traditional career paths or who have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academia.
