Graduate Nursing Faculty (Tenure/Tenure-Track, 9-Month Appointment)

ETSU • Johnson City, TN

2d • Onsite

About The Position

The
ETSU
College of Nursing, Department of Graduate Nursing Programs, invites
applications for a 9-month, open-rank, tenured/tenure-track faculty position.

Successful candidates will be expected to contribute primarily to teaching in
the graduate nursing program. However, the incumbent should have the ability to
contribute to the College’s teaching, research, and service responsibilities
across undergraduate and graduate programs. The position requires engagement in
classroom, lab, simulation, and clinical-based teaching, supporting the
development of future nursing professionals. The new faculty will join a dynamic
group of nursing educators with a strong commitment to student success through
innovative evidence-based teaching strategies, inter-professional collaboration,
and fostering an environment where every student feels valued and supported.

Candidates should have the scholarly preparation expected of faculty in research
academic environments. Candidates should show evidence of strong teaching
ability at the collegiate level, a record of peer-reviewed scholarly
productivity appropriate to rank, and the potential – or, if at the Associate
level, a documented history - of securing external funding. They must maintain
an active, clearly defined program of research that aligns with and advances the
mission and vision of the ETSU College of Nursing, particularly its commitments
to rural health, community engagement, and improving health outcomes in the
Appalachian region.

This position requires teaching, research and service duties to be conducted in
person on campus. Remote or hybrid work options are not available.
