The University of Florida has embarked on an exciting initiative – the UF Preeminence Plan – to achieve recognition as one of the nation’s top-ranked public research institutions. The University of Florida, one of the most comprehensive public universities in the nation, is a member of the Association of American Universities and is included in the Carnegie Commission’s list of leading research universities. UF’s students come from all 50 states and more than 100 countries.

With preeminence status as a goal, the University of Florida’s new STEM Translational Communication Center (STCC) and the UF Health Cancer Center invite applications for a twelve-month, tenured Associate Professor with expertise in cancer communication and translation to begin August 2017. The successful candidate will be actively engaged in both the STCC in the College of Journalism and Communications as well as The University of Florida Health Cancer Center.

The Center is particularly interested in candidates that can contribute expertise in cancer communication as well as informatics, mobile or virtual technology, health disparities, or health literacy.

Candidates for the position will be evaluated based on their ability to demonstrate active research and funding related to cancer communication and translation. Academic appointment will be in the appropriate Department in the College of Journalism and Communications at UF. Rank and tenure status will be commensurate with experience and accomplishment. Compensation includes an excellent benefits package.
