Departmental faculty demonstrate expertise in both teaching and scholarship in the areas of biomedical genetics, epidemiology, neuroscience, public health, reproductive biology, science and technology journalism, and toxicology.
Qualifications
Applicants must hold a DVM or equivalent degree, as all professional anatomy courses are heavily clinically weighted. Documentation of teaching should demonstrate prior responsibility for both course lecture and laboratory teaching, as well as a strong record of teaching excellence.
Salary
