FOUNDING DEAN, SCHOOL OF NURSING AND HEALTH PROFESSIONS
York College of Pennsylvania seeks a dynamic,
solutions-oriented, visionary to serve as the founding dean of its
School of Nursing and Health Professions.
The dean will be the leader of a new school that will encompass the
existing programs in Nursing, selected programs in Biology, and new
programs in the health professions. The dean will be charged with
the planning and implementation of additional new programs in the
health professions. The new school will be the second in a series
of five schools that will be linked by an interdisciplinary Center
for Collaborative Innovation. The deans of the five schools will
work together to generate new programs so as to counterbalance the
five schools becoming separate administrative silos.
The dean will report to the provost and serve on the Provost’s
Council. The dean is responsible for preparing budgets, recruiting
well-qualifi ed professors, overseeing all of the professional
accreditations within the new school, and acting as a spokesperson
for the school and liaison with area health care leaders. The dean
oversees faculty development to assure the high-quality teaching
that is central to York College’s mission.
The dean will possess an earned doctorate in Nursing, Public
Health, Physical Therapy, Physiology, Kinesiology or another
health-related field. A Ph.D. in a basic science may be acceptable
if supplemented by significant work experience in healthcare
education. The dean will have a proven record as a scholar and
educator, and will bring significant academic and administrative
leadership to this position.
