Job Summary
The Department of Veterinary Clinical Services in the Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine invites applications for a full-time (1.00 FTE), 12-month, clinical or tenure-track, Assistant/Associate/Full Professor position.
Appointment at the Assistant Professor rank is anticipated; however, higher rank may be considered depending upon the qualifications of the successful candidate.
Any hiring at the rank of Associate Professor/Professor with indefinite tenure will be subject to a successful out-of-cycle tenure review process: https://facultyaffairs.oregonstate.edu/out-cycle-tenure-review-procedure .
The purpose of this position is to provide clinical service, foster critical thinking, generate original medical information and advance professional veterinary students’ and house officers’ knowledge and skills through research, mentorship and instruction in the Department of Clinical Sciences and the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. The balance between these duties will differ between candidates in our clinical and tenure tracks. Also, the Department is receptive to faculty members in the clinical track or tenure-track seeking part-time appointments. Duties and expectations will vary with the FTE of the appointment.
The Carlson College of Veterinary Medicine provides professional and graduate programs for veterinary students leading to DVM, MS and PhD degrees, operates both a Large and a Small Animal Teaching Hospital (VTH), and a State Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory. The College operates within a total budget (from all sources) of approximately $28 million annually, which supports educational programs, veterinary medical and diagnostic public services, and research programs with broad impacts related to animal and human health. The Department of Clinical Sciences oversees clinical, classroom, and laboratory teaching, and scholarly activity of clinical faculty and residents. The VTH provides primary and referral health care for animals throughout the Pacific Northwest. Its small animal clinic was completed in 2005 and expanded in 2019. It has modern examination and treatment space, full-service diagnostic imaging and surgery facilities and a catheter laboratory for pacemaker implantation and other interventional procedures.
The incumbent provides Cardiology services to veterinary patients admitted during regular hours and after hours. The emphasis is on small companion animals, but occasionally involves large animals or exotic species. The incumbent also mentors, assists and instructs interns, residents and students in the classroom, teaching laboratory and hospital.
Achievement in scholarship and creative activity that is recognized as contributing to the body of knowledge in the practice discipline is required. Such activity should be validated by peers and show evidence of financial independence from university funding, if such funding is required to meet scholarly goals.
