Job Description

Job Description:

The Department of Clinical Sciences at the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine is seeking qualified applicants for a tenure-track position in Equine Surgery and Sports Medicine ( ESSM ) at the faculty rank of Assistant or Associate Professor.

The successful candidate will be expected to participate in teaching, clinical service, outreach, and research. Teaching responsibilities include clinical and didactic instructional activities of the professional veterinary medicine curriculum and postgraduate training programs (residency and graduate programs), primarily related to equine surgery. Clinical service responsibilities include providing clinical care of patients, teaching veterinary medical students, intern and resident training, a share of after-hours equine emergency duty, and consultation with private practitioners. Time devoted to teaching will be approximately 50% (including approximately 35-40% clinical service) and time devoted to research responsibilities will be 30-40% with the remainder comprised of university service and outreach. Teaching and outreach activities will include participation in pre-veterinary and veterinary-student equine-specific initiatives and learning opportunities, graduate education, didactic lectures, and student advising. Extramurally funded research activity that supports the requirements of the ACVS surgery residency training program is expected.

The successful candidate would join the ESSM team of 3 ACVS board-certified, tenured faculty and 3 ACVS residents. One of the ACVS faculty is also boarded in ACVSMR . The after-hours service is staffed by 1 additional clinical track ACVS board-certified equine surgeon and 1 clinical track ACVIM board-certified equine internist with support from the other faculty in equine medicine and surgery. The ESSM service is also supported by Equine Internal Medicine, Equine Ophthalmology, Equine Theriogenology, Cardiology, Equine Diagnostic Imaging, and Equine Ambulatory services. In addition, there is a very busy farm animal hospital with a growing, complex surgical caseload. There is an opportunity to collaborate with this group if desired by the candidate, but this is not required. There is a dedicated ESSM service technician and handling assistant who assist with daily operations and patient care. The caseload includes first-opinion and referral cases and is primarily sport and pleasure horses. There are numerous opportunities for research collaboration within the Auburn University veterinary medicine campus, Auburn University's main campus, and the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine Auburn campus.
