Job description

The School of Public Health (SPH) at the University of Memphis (UofM) is seeking to hire a full-time, 9-month tenure-track Associate/Full Professor in Implementation Science and Urban Health to join our interdisciplinary, collaborative team of faculty. The successful candidate will be expected to teach both graduate and undergraduate students, enhance existing academic programs, develop an active research program, secure funding in promising areas of research, and foster collaborations within the school, university, and with external partners.

Candidates should have a doctoral degree in Public Health, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Implementation Science, Urban Health, or a closely related field and experience commensurate with the academic rank of Associate/Full Professor.

Duties and Responsibilities: The successful candidate will advance implementation science and urban health research with a focus on translating evidence-based interventions into sustainable, real-world practice in diverse and underserved urban populations. Responsibilities include to:

Develop and sustain a funded research program in implementation science and urban health, including areas such as chronic disease prevention, mental health, structural and social determinants of health, and community-based interventions.

Apply and advance implementation science and dissemination frameworks, including pragmatic trials, and strategies to improve adoption, implementation, and sustainability of evidence-based practices.

Advance community-engaged and participatory research, working collaboratively with public health agencies and community-based organizations, particularly within urban contexts.

Collaborate with faculty from public health, computer science, engineering, urban affairs, and related fields to advance SPH initiatives and interdisciplinary research.

Teach four (4) 3-credit hour courses (2 each semester) in areas such as implementation science, social and behavioral sciences, urban health, health disparities, and related fields.

Maintain an active research and publication agenda with peer-reviewed publications and extramural funding.

Mentor graduate and undergraduate students, including doctoral students, and contribute to workforce development in implementation science and urban health.

Contribute to curriculum development and program innovation, particularly in strengthening training in implementation science, dissemination research, and applied urban health.

Demonstrate excellent oral and written communication skills and the ability to work effectively in interdisciplinary and community settings.
