Psychiatric/Mental Health Faculty Position

The ultimate mission of the Yale School of Nursing is to contribute to better health care for all people. Through the systematic study of the nature and effect of nursing practice, students are prepared to become effective nurse clinicians and nurse scholars capable of improving practice through sound clinical judgment, scholarship and research.

The Search

Yale University School of Nursing (YSN) seeks qualified candidates for a faculty appointment in the psychiatric-mental health nursing specialty area.  Faculty will have teaching assignments in the graduate psychiatric nursing program.  As a member of the faculty, the appointee will be expected to contribute to teaching, service and scholarship at YSN.  Successful candidates will hold a master’s degree in psychiatric-mental health nursing, doctoral preparation in nursing or a related field, national certification, and eligibility for advanced practice licensure in Connecticut.  Preference will be given to a nurse practitioner (NP) or clinical nurse specialist (CNS) with a concentration in psychiatric-mental health nursing.  Salary and rank will be commensurate with previous accomplishments and experience.

Yale School of Nursing (YSN) is a unique place - where practice, scholarship, and teaching combine in ways that are not simply additive.  Through these aspects of their work faculty, students and alumnae/i are making a real difference in their respective communities: at Yale, in New Haven, and in society at large.

The School's educational programs are consistently ranked in the top 10 for clinical education, and the School ranks seventh in funding from the National Institutes of Health to nursing schools for research.  The research-intensive environment of Yale University, with its full range of academic disciplines, provides an exceptional environment for advanced study in nursing.
