Job Description
The Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center is recruiting Rhinologist at Assistant/Associate Professor, full time faculty position with tenure-track potential.
The ideal candidate would possess strong clinical training and have demonstrated potential for teaching, patient care, and clinical research. The successful candidate would have access to a dedicated research fellow, enjoy academic collaboration with other departments across the institution, and be involved in the training of our otolaryngology residents (we match four residents per year).
More specifically, at our main clinical site we have an unmet need for both general otolaryngologic and advanced rhinology/skull base care, and the successful candidate would initially provide roughly 50% general otolaryngology and 50% tertiary rhinology/skull base services, with the ability to customize his or her practice according to their preferences with time. Due to recent growth at UTHSC, we have four endoscopically trained neurosurgeons and there is a significant unmet need for skull base surgery coverage, so comfort with the management of complex inflammatory disease and skull base pathology is desired. General otolaryngology call coverage is shared amongst faculty in the department.

The University of Tennessee Health Science Center is the flagship statewide, public, academic health institution in Tennessee. Founded in 1911, the mission of the University of Tennessee Health Science is to improve the health and well-being of Tennesseans and the global community by fostering integrated, collaborative, and inclusive education, research, scientific discovery, clinical care, and public service. Employing more than 4,600 people on its faculty, staff, and not-for-profit corporation faculty practice groups, and with more than 3,200 students across the state, UTHSC contributes $4 billion to the economy of Tennessee.
Part of the University of Tennessee System, the Health Science Center is headquartered in Memphis and includes all six of UT’s doctoral-degree-granting health science colleges — Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Nursing, Graduate Health Sciences, and Health Professions.
