The Department of Emergency Medicine at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania seeks candidates for several Assistant or Associate Professor positions in either the non-tenure academic-clinician track or the non-tenure clinician-educator track. Track and rank will be commensurate with experience. The successful applicant will have experience in the field of emergency medicine with a focus on specific programmatic areas described below. Applicants must have an M.D. degree and have demonstrated excellent qualifications in clinical care and education. While evidence of scholarship is required in the clinician-educator track, research is not required in the academic clinician track.

Of particular interest are candidates with demonstrated academic interest and/or additional training or focus in the following areas: simulation, clinical trials, observation medicine, emergency bedside ultrasound, clinical informatics, critical care, or assistant residency program leadership. Attractive opportunities also exist for full or part time exclusive coverage of nights for an exceptional clinically oriented academic emergency physician.

Penn Medicine is comprised of three hospitals (Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania-HUP; Penn-Presbyterian Medical Center-PPMC; and Pennsylvania Hospital-PAH) with a combined annual emergency department census of 140,000 visits. Each site has a unique, diverse, highly acute patient population consisting of local and referral patients. Penn Medicine is a world class academic institution with superb clinical facilities and programs, the number two ranked medical school in the nation, and a rich and collegial research environment. The Department of Emergency Medicine has a 4 year, highly successful, academically oriented residency program with 40 residents, multiple fellowships including one of only six NIH funded K12 clinical research fellowships and several nationally acclaimed research programs housed within its Center for Resuscitation Science and the Center of Emergency Medicine Health Policy and Health Services Research. There are over 70 faculty across the three sites and there are close academic affiliations and programmatic alliances with the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Veterans Medical Center. Faculty positions will be structured across multiple sites according to skills, interest and clinical availability.

Faculty candidates who have strong academic and leadership potential and desire to be part of an outstanding, highly motivated and highly productive group of colleagues are urged to apply.

We seek candidates who embrace and reflect diversity in the broadest sense.

The University of Pennsylvania is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer.
