Description
The new Clemson University Harvey S. Peeler Jr. College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is seeking applicants for a full-time faculty position to lead the development and implementation of the basic, applied, and clinical immunology portion of the DVM curriculum. The primary responsibilities of this position are focused on teaching with substantial opportunities for research and scholarship if desired. Academic rank would be commensurate with experience.
The Veterinary Immunology faculty will play a vital role in developing and delivering the curriculum for the next generation of veterinarians for the state of SC. The integrated, team-taught curriculum (https://www.clemson.edu/veterinary-medicine/students/curriculum.html) will focus first on the healthy animal, followed by the diseased animal and then on clinical case management. Within this framework, this faculty member will provide leadership in the design, implementation, and oversight of course content related to basic immunology, applied immunology, and clinical immunology. This individual will also guide students in integrating these principles to enhance animal health and apply them effectively in clinical case management.
Utilizing the classroom, lab spaces and teaching technology, this faculty member will provide students with applicable and clinically based education in these areas, preparing them to progress into more advanced coursework. Working collaboratively with other faculty and staff, the content in this course series will align with the coursework occurring simultaneously in the Clinical Skills and Professional Development courses in the DVM program. This faculty member will help ensure students achieve proficiency in all necessary pre-clinical competencies.
The faculty member will also be expected to contribute to the research mission of the College and University by participating in collaborative veterinary or biomedical research projects.
