Job Description:
|
Objective:
|
The University of Arizona College of Veterinary Medicine invites applications for a faculty position with a primary focus on teaching food animal medicine, surgery, and herd health management to join the current food animal team. We are seeking a veterinarian with clinical experience with food animal species and herd health management to assist with the design and facilitation of active learning classroom sessions and clinical skills labs for first and second-year pre-clinical veterinary students. Our curriculum is organized by organ-system blocks, and this position will focus on supporting the clinical skills teaching and collaborate with the organ-system course leaders to contribute clinically relevant food animal course content geared toward “day-one-ready” veterinarians.
Second-year course involvement may include teaching in the food animal portions of advanced medical and surgical management as well as food animal and herd health electives. The curriculum is built on an inclusive, evidence-based pedagogy with the goal of graduating veterinarians trained in lifelong learning and prepared to excel in diverse career trajectories. Our faculty have the unique advantage of being part of a team consisting of pedagogy and technology experts to deliver content in innovative methodologies. Team Based Learning (TBL) and Peer Instruction (PI) methods will be used in classroom sessions—traditional didactic lectures are not part of the teaching program. The successful candidate will demonstrate a commitment to joining and contributing to an academic culture of inclusive and active learning. Abundant faculty development resources are available, both within the college and externally, to assist faculty in developing skills in active learning strategies.
Our Mission is to lead the profession as a student-centered program focused on developing career-ready veterinarians who will live healthy meaningful lives and serve their communities. We value an inclusive environment that fosters adaptive, innovative learners who will be successful leaders in the field of veterinary medicine. We believe in emphasizing critical thinking and evidence-based teaching to help students become skilled problem-solvers and lifelong learners. We are committed to extending The University of Arizona’s rich history of outstanding education to provide our students with the resources and knowledge that will help them succeed in all areas of life.
This career-track appointment is not eligible for tenure.
Outstanding UA benefits include health, dental, and vision insurance plans; life insurance and disability programs; paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays; UA/ASU/NAU tuition reduction for the employee and qualified family members; state and optional retirement plans; access to UA recreation and cultural activities; and more!
