As such, the candidate is expected to demonstrate a broad understanding of social determinants of health; expertise in disaster research; methodological strength in public health systems research and communication studies; disciplinary depth in social science such as sociology, anthropology, or political science or in academic, public health; a passion for and strength in teaching; and a strong interest in developing or contributing to an active, externally-funded research portfolio.
