Multidisciplinary Educator in the Basic Sciences

Position Summary

The Michigan State University College of Human Medicines Office of Academic Affairs invites applications for a multidisciplinary educator in the basic sciences. In 2016, the College of Human Medicine (CHM) implemented an innovative new curriculum, envisioned to be responsive to the needs of students and faculty in a new technological era and a new medical landscape. This new curriculum, the Shared Discovery Curriculum, provides integrated content organized around patient complaints and concerns. It is an experience-based curriculum where medical students learn by doing. The ideal candidate would be a basic science educator with a demonstrated background in higher education and an interest in expanding their teaching portfolio in the basic medical sciences (physiology, microbiology, immunology, genetics, histology, neuroscience, anatomy and pathology).

Our novel medical education curriculum integrates basic and social sciences with clinical experiences starting soon after matriculation. During the first year, students are placed in primary care settings throughout Lansing and Grand Rapids communities. Second year students rotate through several different types of clinical settings including respiratory therapy, hospice and palliative care, pediatric wards, adult wards, and emergency medicine. The Late Clinical Experiences include clerkships in the primary specialties and elective rotations and occurs in the community campuses across Michigan. In addition to the integrated curriculum during clinical experiences, students engage in intensive study of basic sciences, epidemiology, health policy and other social sciences during intersessions at the end of years one and two. The Late Clinical Experience also includes Advanced Skills and Knowledge courses which span the entire last two years.

The ideal candidate will collaborate with fellow basic science, social science and clinical educators to integrate basic science concepts throughout the curriculum; and will serve as a content expert and leader in developing specific educational and assessment materials to be delivered in a variety of student-centered and online pedagogies. It is expected that the candidate will teach clinically relevant material, facilitate large and small group instruction and actively support the longitudinal integration of basic science disciplines.
