Open Rank Tenure or Non-Tenure Faculty - Veterinary Immunology
Clemson University: Harvey S. Peeler Jr. College of Veterinary Medicine
Location: Lehotsky Hall
Open Date: Jan 30, 2025
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.

Organization
Working at Clemson University
Clemson is a dynamic research university located in Upstate South Carolina at the center of the booming I-85 corridor between Charlotte, N.C., and Atlanta, Ga. One of the nation’s most selective public research universities according to U.S. News & World Report and The Princeton Review, Clemson University is the school of choice among top students in South Carolina and is increasingly competitive for the best students in the region and the nation. More than 17,100 students select from 70 undergraduate and 100 graduate degree programs through five academic colleges: Agriculture, Forestry and Life Sciences; Architecture, Arts and Humanities; Business and Behavioral Science; Engineering and Science; and Health, Education and Human Development.
Clemson’s transformation into a leading research institution — currently attracting in excess of $140 million in externally funded research and sponsored program awards per year — is based upon an academic plan that identifies eight emphasis areas in which the University has opportunities to increase education and research, to align with South Carolina’s economic development needs and to draw upon faculty strengths. Emphasis areas include automotive and transportation technology, advanced materials, biotechnology and biomedical sciences, leadership and entrepreneurship, sustainable environment, information and communication technology, family and community living, and general education.
Major economic development initiatives that have emerged from the academic plan include the Clemson International Center for Automotive Research — a 250-acre campus in Greenville, which has generated more than $225 million in public and private commitments in just four years; an advanced materials initiative at the Clemson Research Park, which includes a new LEED Silver-certified facility; and the South Carolina Health Sciences Collaborative — an initiative of the state’s three research universities and major health-care systems.
As the state’s land-grant university, Clemson reaches out to citizens, communities and businesses all over South Carolina. The Public Service Activities division includes the county-based Cooperative Extension Service, five off-campus research and education centers through the Clemson University Experiment Station and critical regulatory responsibilities for plant and animal health.
The University boasts a 1,400-acre campus on the shores of Lake Hartwell within view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Surrounding the campus are 18,000 acres of University farms and woodlands devoted to research. A warm campus environment, great weather and recreational activities offered by proximity to both the natural surroundings and large cities are part of the Clemson Experience.

The Clemson Conference Center and Inn is a state-of-the-art facility for symposia, meetings, seminars and special events. The complex includes the Madren Continuing Education and Conference Center, the Walker Golf Course and the Martin Inn.
