Epidemiologist - Public Health, School of Medicine

The Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine in the School of Medicine of St. George’s University is seeking to recruit an Assistant/Associate or Full Professor in Epidemiology. 

The successful candidate must possess a terminal degree in epidemiology or a post MD or DVM graduate degree in epidemiology.  Epidemiologists who have not held an academic position but instead have been employed in public health practice or research settings are also encouraged to apply, as are retirees. 

The mission of the Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine in the School of Medicine at St. George's University is to improve the health, quality of life and well-being of populations, communities and persons through education, research and service in public health and preventive medicine.

The Department offers three programs leading to the Master of Public Health degree:  A free-standing MPH degree program, an MD-MPH dual degree program, and a DVM-MPH dual degree program.  It also offers the MSPH degree, as a research option.

The successful candidate would join a multi-disciplinary faculty that is engaged in public health graduate education, utilizing classroom lectures, small group instruction, and student mentoring and advisement.  S/he would also be expected to participate in the on-going development of a high quality graduate program in public health in a relatively fledgling department of an internationally-known medical school. 

St. George’s University is an institution that emphasizes the highest standards of teaching and while research is not discouraged, excellent teaching is encouraged at this international university. 

The successful candidate would be expected to work effectively with a highly diverse student body.  More than 80 countries are represented by these students, despite the fact that most of them grew up, and plan to work, in the United States. 

The University is located in the English-speaking, island state of Grenada, a pristine and beautiful Caribbean country.  Salaries, paid in US dollars, are competitive with those offered by US medical schools.
