Working with various learning management systems is desired. Ability and understanding to work with the simulation department to develop and deliver didactic, clinical, and/or simulation-based instruction at the various nursing program levels is preferred.
Participation in accreditation (i.e., CCNE/BON), program-mapping, course revisions and curriculum development, providing services to the university and nursing department on committees, advising/mentoring students both academically and professionally based on the nursing program is required.
Interested applicants should be prepared to be available to engage with the department on campus throughout the academic year and serve on academic committees either in person or via zoom. Our programs focus on health across the life course of individuals from diverse populations and target improving health equity in populations at risk for healthcare disparities.

The graduate nursing program is also starting a new Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program in the fall 2026. The major focus of the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in nursing program is on population health and health policy.
