POSITION
DESCRIPTION
The
Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the UCLA Fielding School of
Public Health invites applicants for a tenure-track Assistant Professor
position with an emphasis in Environmental Health Policy. The position includes
9 months of state-supported salary, with an anticipated start date of July 1,
2024. The current base pay range is $74,600 - $97,200. Other components of pay
are offered when necessary to meet competitive conditions. While the Department
has an expansive vision of environmental health policy, we are especially
interested in applicants who utilize community-based participatory approaches,
implementation science and other applied methods to undertake research to
reduce the health impacts of environmental exposures (from climate change to
air and water pollution to toxic exposures and many others) and advance
environmental justice and / or health equity. Applicants with public health
practice experience are also encouraged to apply, although such experience is
not required.
The successful candidate will have demonstrated evidence of
strong research productivity and a commitment to excellence in teaching and
mentorship of undergraduate and graduate students. They will be expected to
develop and maintain an extramurally supported research program, teach courses
at the graduate and undergraduate level, engage in service to the organization,
and develop into an internationally-recognized leader in their field.
Los Angeles is a global city renowned for its dynamism, robust
economy, rich cultural diversity and spectacular climate. UCLA has been ranked
the No. 1 public university in the nation by U.S. News & World Report for
seven straight years. The Fielding School of Public Health offers undergraduate
degrees (BA and BS) and graduate degrees (MPH, MS, and PHD) across five
academic departments, of which the Department of Environmental Health Sciences
in one. The Department of Environmental Health Sciences has particular
strengths in the areas of industrial hygiene and occupational health, aerosol
science, air pollution, spatiotemporal exposure assessment and epidemiologic
research, and health equity, as well as in big data. While many faculty in the
Department of Environmental Health Sciences engage in policy-related and
community-engaged research, we are seeking an individual who can increase our
capacity and impact in these areas, and develop into a leader for our
organization.
UCLA and Fielding School of Public Health are firmly committed
to the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion. We seek applicants who
demonstrate a commitment to advancing equity, diversity, inclusion and
belonging via their research, teaching, and/or service, and all applicants are
required to submit a statement that addresses their past efforts and future
plans in these areas. Letters of recommendation will be solicited from
references following an initial screening review.
