Appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor in the Clinical Scholar Pathway will be commensurate with years of experience and accomplishments.

The Program Director (PD) will lead a residency leadership team including Assistant and Associate PDs and a GME Program Administrator. The PD will report to the Division Chief of Education (currently the inaugural PD) and the Chair of Emergency Medicine. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with the Vice Chair of Academic Affairs, our Fellowship Directors, and our Clerkship Directors to ensure program excellence.
