Position Description
The National Center for Cannabis Research and Education (NCCRE), in the School of Pharmacy, The University of Mississippi invites applications for the position of Director. The NCCRE is one of five research centers under the framework of the Research Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences (RIPS). The reporting line of the Director is to the Dean of the School of Pharmacy/Executive Director of RIPS. The position comprises a key leadership role in the School of Pharmacy as we expand our long-standing cannabis research program into new directions, taking account of the rapidly changing national and state landscapes for cannabis regulation and clinical use. In particular, with the launch of state medical cannabis programs around the country, and most recently in Mississippi, the NCCRE will aim to bring a strong focus on sound science and clinical research, and science-based education to inform pharmacists and other health professionals, as well as the public.
Applicants must have a Pharm.D., J.D., M.D., Ph.D. in pharmaceutical sciences or a related discipline, or other relevant doctoral degree and an established reputation in cannabis-related research, education, clinical care, or public policy. This is a top priority, high-visibility program, with excellent opportunity for building a strong science base into new directions. The successful candidate must have demonstrated expertise for effective communication/leadership with faculty, legislators, policy-makers, practitioners, and the public. The expectation is that the director will effectively develop new funding mechanisms by a combination of state, federal, and private efforts. Applicants must possess administrative experience and have a record appropriate to an appointment to the faculty in the School of Pharmacy at the University of Mississippi. Salary and rank are negotiable and commensurate with experience.
The University of Mississippi is the flagship university for the State of Mississippi. A world-class public research university, the institution has a long history of producing leaders in public service, academics and innovative research. The School of Pharmacy is on the main campus in Oxford, a community of approximately 19,000 residents that has been recognized nationally as one of America’s best places to live. The Chronicle of Higher Education has named The University of Mississippi as one of the “Great Colleges to Work For.”
We recognize the importance of a diverse faculty and staff and a supportive educational and professional environment that affirms the value of cultural diversity. We strongly encourage applications from candidates who are traditionally underrepresented in academia and from all candidates who are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive academic community.
The earliest start date is January 2, 2023. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled or until an adequate applicant pool is established. The search will continue until a suitable candidate is selected.
Interested applicants should submit an application, letter of intent outlining his/her qualifications for the position and rank, curriculum vitae, and the names and contact information of at least three references through The University of Mississippi’s online employment site at https://careers.olemiss.edu.
