About the Opportunity

The School of Nursing invites applications for multiple full-time open rank tenure-track/ tenured positions at the Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor levels with an anticipated start date in 2025.

We are seeking highly motivated candidates with research programs that broadly align with our mission of advancing health for everyone, from the individual to society, across the healthspan. The research areas for these positions are open to candidates studying topics across the many diverse disciplines in nursing research within the broad umbrella of oncology. Junior researchers are welcome to apply, as are senior faculty with internationally recognized research programs and strong funding.   The candidates will have demonstrated teaching excellence and commitment to supporting a diverse faculty, staff, and student environment.

We welcome candidates with interdisciplinary expertise who is capable of leading and collaborating with researchers at Bouvé and across Northeastern University. Joint appointments within Bouvé or across other colleges at Northeastern are highly recommended.

Our tenure and promotion process values collaborative research and teamwork. Hires will be mentored for success, with mentoring teams and group guidance. In addition, a strong and effective faculty development strategy is part of the Northeastern institutional mission. The ADVANCE Office of Faculty Development office works in conjunction with the Office of Research Development (ORD), the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (ODEI), the Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning Through Research (CATLR), and University Decision Support (UDS) to provide programs and trainings to develop further and support a thriving faculty.

At Northeastern University, we embrace a culture of respect, where each person is valued for their contribution and is treated fairly. We oppose all forms of racism. We support a culture that does not tolerate any form of discrimination and where each person may belong. We strive to have a diverse membership, one where each person is trained and mentored to promote their success.
