The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy Health Outcomes Division invites applications for a full-time faculty position at the rank of tenure-track Assistant Professor or Associate Professor with tenure. Appointment as Associate Professor requires demonstrated sustained extramural grant support, research, scholarship, and teaching proficiency that are consistent with appointment to that rank at a research-intensive university.

Primary responsibilities include teaching in the graduate and professional pharmacy programs, mentoring graduate students, and performing innovative research and scholarship. Candidates at the assistant professor level are expected to demonstrate strong potential for establishing a vigorous, independent and externally funded research program. Candidates at the associate professor level are expected to have clear evidence of research accomplishment with established external funding. Preference will be given to candidates with federal funding. The successful candidate will be expected to compete for independent and collaborative funding from public and private sources in support of their summer salary and research program. The successful candidate will be expected to collaborate with faculty across campus, including the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Social Work, and Public Health. Additionally, the College has affiliations with health systems, public and private payers, as well as safety net organizations.

The College of Pharmacy is consistently ranked as one of the top five colleges of pharmacy in the country and the Health Outcomes division has 5 tenured and tenure-track research faculty, 2 research scientists, and approximately 30 Master's and PhD graduate students and health outcomes fellows (http://sites.utexas.edu/healthoutcomes/). The division houses the Texas Center for Health Outcomes Research and Education (TxCORE), (http://sites.utexas.edu/txcore/), where a diverse group of researchers partner with stakeholders in pharmaceutical industry, managed care, clinical research organizations, pharmacy organizations and associations and health care institutions to address medication and health-related issues.

Qualified candidates must have an earned PharmD (or other health care-related degree) and a PhD with a strong research focus in health outcomes, pharmacoeconomics, pharmacoepidemiology, public health, or a related health care field. Preference will be given to candidates with a track record of research in secondary database analysis. The College of Pharmacy seeks candidates who are committed to, and will contribute to, diversity, equity, and inclusion. Please see the University’s resources at https://www.utexas.edu/about/diversity. The successful candidate will receive a highly competitive start-up package. Applications received before November 11, 2019 will receive first consideration, but applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
