About MUSC Health:

The Medical University of South Carolina is the state's only academic medical center and one of the nation's top research universities. MUSC Health encompasses more than 2,500 licensed beds across a growing statewide network, along with MUSC's six colleges, a nationally recognized research enterprise, and graduate medical education programs that train the next generation of health professionals. MUSC's tripartite mission, clinical care, research, and education, demands an information technology organization capable of enabling excellence across all three pillars simultaneously.

The Deputy Chief Information Officer, Academic and Research Technologies, is a pivotal executive leadership role within MUSC's Enterprise Information Solutions organization. This leader is accountable for the technology strategy, systems, and services that advance MUSC's academic, clinical, and research missions, with direct oversight over two of the three pillars of the institution's tripartite purpose.

This executive serves as the primary bridge between Central Information Solutions (Central IS) and the academic enterprise, spanning the College of Medicine, College of Nursing, College of Pharmacy, College of Dental Medicine, College of Health Professions, and College of Graduate Studies, as well as MUSC's vibrant research community. The role partners closely with local IS teams embedded within schools and research programs, ensuring that enterprise architecture and infrastructure investments are appropriately extended and tailored to academic and research environments.

A core priority is the deployment, optimization, and lifecycle management of enterprise Student Information Systems (SIS), learning management platforms, and research enablement technologies. This leader will work at the intersection of academic operations and cutting-edge discovery, supporting MUSC's signature Integrated Innovation Institutions (I3's) strategic initiatives, facilitating clinical research infrastructure, and enabling the translation of discovery into care model redesign.

This is a role for a seasoned technology executive who brings equal command of the academic and research enterprise, someone who can champion the technology needs of students, faculty, and academic administrators with the same credibility and fluency they bring to supporting investigators, research programs, and the translational science agenda. MUSC requires a leader who sees these two missions not as separate portfolios, but as deeply interconnected dimensions of a single institutional purpose.
