"Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream - Nursing"

Description

The Lawrence Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing at the University of Toronto invites applications for up to two full-time teaching stream appointments in Nursing. The appointment will be at the rank of Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2026.

This search aligns with the University’s commitment to strategically and proactively promote diversity among our community members (Statement on Equity, Diversity & Excellence). Recognizing that Black, Indigenous, and other Racialized communities have experienced inequities that have developed historically and are ongoing, we strongly welcome and encourage candidates from those communities to apply.

Preference will be given to candidates who self-identify as Indigenous. Recognizing that there are a variety of terms that potential candidates may use to self-identify, the University uses the term “Indigenous” in this search, which forms part of the U of T Response to Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, to encompass the people of Turtle Island, including those who identify as First Nations, Métis, Inuk (Inuit), Alaska Native, Native American, and Native Hawaiian people.

Applicants must have an entry-to-practice degree (BScN or MN) in Nursing, as well as a doctoral degree (PhD or DN) in Nursing or a related discipline by the time of appointment, or shortly thereafter, with a demonstrated record of excellence in teaching in a range of classroom, online, and practice settings, including lecture preparation and delivery and curriculum development in a degree granting program. Additionally, candidates must possess a demonstrated commitment to excellent pedagogical inquiry and a demonstrated interest in teaching-related scholarly activities.

Applicants with recent clinical nursing practice experience, including as a nurse practitioner, are strongly encouraged to apply. We seek candidates whose teaching interests complement and enhance our existing strengths. All applicants must be eligible for registration with the College of Nurses of Ontario.

Evidence of excellence in teaching and a commitment to excellent pedagogical inquiry will be demonstrated by teaching accomplishments, awards and accolades, and the teaching dossier including a teaching statement, sample course materials, and teaching evaluations, as well as strong letters of reference.

The salary range is $130,000 to $150,000 CAD per annum, depending on experience. Negotiations beyond this salary range will be considered for exceptionally qualified candidates.
