Position Description The School of Public Health at the University of California Berkeley invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor rank or a tenured position at the Associate Professor or Full Professor rank within the Division of Epidemiology. We welcome applicants engaged in cutting-edge research that expands our understanding of emerging and reemerging infectious diseases in both domestic and international contexts. We are particularly interested in research that partners with local, state, national, or global public health departments to translate research into practice, policy, or systems-level improvements for infectious disease control and prevention. Specifically, we encourage applicants with expertise in advanced epidemiologic methods and computational approaches to investigate: (1) interactions among agents, hosts, vectors, and the environment; (2) population-level characteristics of pathogens, such as phylogenetic structure and antimicrobial resistance dissemination; and/or (3) the evaluation of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention strategies for communicable diseases. We invite applicants with a strong commitment to community engagement and an interest in building and sustaining partnerships with local, state, national, or international public health agencies and community-based organizations. These partnerships should support the implementation and evaluation of programs aimed at mitigating pandemic and other infectious disease threats, enhancing pandemic preparedness, and promoting practical, flexible strategies tailored to the needs of disproportionately impacted communities. The teaching expectation for this position is three courses per academic year. For tenure-track candidates, there is a ramp-up period. We are looking for individuals with mentoring and teaching interests and experience related to epidemiology at the undergraduate and/or graduate levels. Tenure-track candidates will be assigned to a senior faculty mentor through our Junior Faculty Mentoring Program and provided with career development, guidance, and training to ensure a pathway to success. There will also be an assignment of service commitments at the divisional and school levels. The Division of Epidemiology is one of the nation's leading research and training programs in epidemiology and population health. We have developed a strong reputation in infectious disease epidemiology through long-standing collaborations with academic institutions, the CDC, and local public health departments to develop the gold standards of infectious disease surveillance. Our network has also worked to investigate the effectiveness of prevention strategies and to guide policy decisions on vaccine development, effectiveness, and distribution, along with other infectious disease mitigation strategies. The UC Berkeley School of Public Health recognizes the intrinsic relationship between diversity and excellence in all our endeavors. The School embraces open and equitable access to opportunities for learning and development as our obligation and goal. The school is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents, and we are interested in candidates who have had non-traditional career paths or who have had time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academia.
