Position Summary
The University at Buffalo (UB) School of Nursing (SON) welcomes applications for our next dynamic, innovative and strategic Associate Dean for Research (ADR). Our ADR will be an accomplished research scientist who will provide leadership, vision, mentorship, and vibrant energy to expand the efforts of an already accomplished faculty and create and develop a supportive environment for a cadre of new research faculty. The University at Buffalo is an R1 university and a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU).
The Associate Dean for Research will increase the research productivity across tenured/tenure track and clinical faculty, pre- and post-doctoral scholars and be administratively responsible for managing the resources of the Office of Nursing Research. Currently the University is on a historic hiring trajectory as we seek an additional five new tenured/tenure track faculty to join the School of Nursing. This year we welcomed two new nurse research scientists who are investigating the cognitive effects of sleep and how climate change with higher environmental temperatures affects kidney function.
This is an exciting time to join the UB School of Nursing and the University at Buffalo as President Tripathi has set an aggressive goal to be in the top 25 public universities within the next five years and we have just completed our successful $1 Billion Boldly Buffalo Campaign. UB has been designated by Governor Hochul as the academic center/hub of Empire AI (Artificial Intelligence), a $400 million dollar public-private investment to make New York State the national leader in AI research and innovation.
Academic partnerships exist with other schools/agencies including the School of Engineering and Applied Science, School of Public Health and Health Sciences, School of Dental Medicine, School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center and the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences that is host to a NIH CTSA funded Clinical Translational Science Institute (CTSI), and together we are committed to addressing health equity through a newly funded Community Health Equity Research Institute. Our 7-point strategic plan for the school reflects our vision for growth and excellence.
Currently we are working to expand our undergraduate and graduate clinical programs as we continue to be one of the leaders in the use of simulation on the University at Buffalo campus and across schools of nursing in the SUNY system.
We are particularly looking for candidates who can operate effectively in a diverse community of students and faculty and share our vision of helping all constituents reach their full potential. We are committed to developing an excellent and diverse community of scholars and students engaged in education, research, and service. We encourage applications from women, members of historically marginalized groups, veterans, and individuals with disabilities.
