AI BUSINESS OF HEALTH CLUSTER HIRES

The McCombs School of Business and the Dell Medical School at U of Texas at Austin jointly seek two open-rank, tenure-track faculty candidates as part of its "AI Business of Health" cluster hiring initiative, with appointments to start in the 2025-26 academic year. Whereas the appointments will be primarily based in the McCombs School of Business and/or Dell Medical School, we envision collaborative opportunities across the entire UT community with both existing faculty and others who will arrive as part of broader AI and healthcare initiatives.

We are committed to strengthening our leadership in research, development and implementation of health-outcomes oriented artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Candidates with doctoral training in one or more of the following areas will be preferred: information systems, computer science (in particular, machine learning and AI), (bio)statistics, economics, operations research, and decision sciences. This expertise will complement the ongoing and future expansion of Dell Medical School's and McCombs School of Business's research and teaching mission. Preferred candidates will have specific interest in cross-disciplinary research in clinical, health-care delivery, and/or public health settings. For senior candidates oriented toward a primary appointment in Dell Medical School, a robust track record of extramural funding is strongly preferred.

The appointment will commence in the 2025-26 academic year, i.e., starting in the Fall 2025 semester.

The Dell Medical School pursues innovation in the redesign of healthcare delivery, excellence in healthcare research, and programs in interdisciplinary and inter-professional education. The University of Texas Medical Center, anchored by Dell Medical School and with planning and implementation underway, aspires to cement Austin as a premier destination for health care, including two new, state-of-the-art hospitals - a UT specialty hospital and a cancer center being built by MD Anderson - plus the academic and research expertise of UT.

Minimum Education and Experience: Candidates must have a PhD or equivalent before the start date; those with ABD status will be considered at the application/interviewing stage. Candidates with clinical degrees and demonstrated track record of relevant research in these areas will also be considered. Candidates are expected to foster a collaborative, engaging, and dynamic environment comprised of scholars with a range of backgrounds, skills, and perspectives. We seek candidates who can produce scholarly research that enhances both schools as well as the focal disciplines of their scholarly works, and who can excel in teaching students from a range of backgrounds and experiences.
