POSITION TITLE: Assistant/Associate Professor, Anti-racism, Social Justice & Public Health 
ORGANIZATION: New York University School of Global Public Health 

The NYU School of Global Public Health has established a new Center for Anti-racism, Social Justice & Public Health (CASJPH).  CASJPH is aligned with two key NYU research and education priorities: (1) structural inequality and anti-racism and (2) public health and health equity. Currently, we seek to recruit two tenure-track assistant professors and one associate professor to support the activities of CASJPH. Appointments can be in any of the School’s departments or programs (Bioethics, Biostatistics, Epidemiology, Global Public Health, Public Health Nutrition, Public Health Policy and Management, or Social and Behavioral Sciences), but the candidate’s work must align with the goals of the Center.

The Center for Anti-racism, Social Justice & Public Health is undertaking a sweeping, multifaceted transdisciplinary effort to build a science base that examines racism as a social determinant of health and analyzes policies and social structures, such as residential segregation, that have created racial inequities in education, healthcare, criminal justice, social services, and other areas that can negatively impact health. The CASJPH will advance innovative methods (including community/stakeholder engagement and community based participatory research) and statistical techniques to leverage the power of data to better address the myriad of issues impacting the health of people of color and other marginalized populations in support of collaborative action and concrete policy changes.

We are seeking faculty who will broaden and deepen our efforts in advancing these goals by contributing to a portfolio of research initiatives with the specific focus on advancing conceptual, methodological and empirical paradigms in anti-racism, social justice and public health. In addition to educating and training the next generation of academic leaders and public health practitioners in anti-racist praxis and methods, we are interested in candidates whose research interests align with the goals of CASJPH across multiple public health disciplines (e.g., biostatistics, epidemiology, community health, nutrition, social and behavioral sciences, public health policy). Successful candidates will be expected to conduct original research and/or collaborate with research teams across disciplines, publish peer reviewed papers and seek extramural funding for their research program as needed. Additionally, candidates should show a clear commitment to teaching masters and doctoral students. Candidates will be appointed to a primary department or academic program in the School of Global Public Health based on their expertise.
