The successful candidate will primarily teach at the Surrey campus, and may teach at the Point Grey campus based on the needs of the School.
The successful candidate will be expected to develop an independent research program relevant to advanced practice nursing, promoting people’s health and informing the future of health care in Canada and beyond.
