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 understanding of emerging and reemerging infectious diseases in domestic and international contexts. We are 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 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) evaluation of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention strategies for communicable diseases. Applicants with a strong commitment to community engagement and partnerships with public health agencies and community-based organizations are invited. These partnerships should support implementation and evaluation of programs aimed at mitigating pandemic and other infectious disease threats, enhancing pandemic preparedness, and promoting flexible strategies tailored to the needs of disproportionately impacted communities. The teaching expectation is three courses per academic year. For tenure-track candidates, there is a ramp-up period. We seek individuals with mentoring and teaching interests and experience related to epidemiology at undergraduate and/or graduate levels. Tenure-track candidates will be assigned a senior faculty mentor through our Junior Faculty Mentoring Program and will receive career development, guidance, and training to support success. Service commitments at divisional and school levels will also be assigned. The Division of Epidemiology is a leading program in epidemiology and population health with a strong reputation in infectious disease epidemiology and collaborations with the CDC and local public health departments to develop gold standards of infectious disease surveillance. Our network supports vaccine development, effectiveness, and distribution, and other infectious disease mitigation strategies. The UC Berkeley School of Public Health values diversity and excellence and is committed to open and equitable access to opportunities for learning and development. The school supports faculty family needs, including dual career couples and single parents, and recognizes non-traditional career paths or time off for family reasons.
