Assistant or Associate Professor in Health Policy

Assistant or Associate Professor in Health Policy

The Department of Health Policy and Management of Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health seeks applicants for a position in health policy, at the Assistant or Associate Professor level, beginning September 1, 2022.

We seek scholars with a doctoral degree in health policy, or a closely related degree, such as political science, sociology, or health services research.  We define the term health policy quite broadly, but are especially interested in candidates who conduct research that examines the ways that the policymakers and managers can minimize the disparities caused by the social (non-medical) determinants of health.  The successful candidate must also be able to teach courses in health policy and/or research methodology at the master’s level.

All applicants must have the potential for excellence in teaching and research. 

The Department of Health Policy and Management has a multidisciplinary faculty that trains Masters level students in health policy and health administration. We maintain close ties with Columbia's Graduate School of Business, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, College of Physicians and Surgeons, and School of International and Public Affairs, as well as with many New York area healthcare delivery and research institutions. 

Review of applications will commence December 1, 2021.

We encourage new graduates and current assistant or associate professors to apply. To apply, please submit a curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references via apply.interfolio.com/89495

Please address any questions to the search committee chair, Professor Miriam Laugesen (ml3111@cumc.columbia.edu).
