As a patient‑focused organization, the University of Utah Health Sciences exists to enhance the health and well‑being of people through patient care, research and education. Success in this mission requires a culture of collaboration, excellence, leadership, and respect. The Health Sciences Center seeks faculty and staff who are committed to the values of compassion, collaboration, innovation, responsibility, integrity, quality and trust that are integral to our mission.

Adjunct faculty are contracted to teach generalist and specialist content throughout College of Nursing programs (pre‑licensure, RN‑BS, MSN, DNP, PhD) and Gerontology Interdisciplinary Program (GIP) on a semester‑by‑semester basis.

• All adjunct faculty must hold a Master’s degree or higher and, depending on the assigned teaching role and program, hold an active license to practice nursing (e.g., RN, APRN) in the State of Utah. Decisions about whether adjunct faculty are educationally and experientially prepared for an assigned teaching role are made on a case‑by‑case basis.

The College of Nursing is an integral part of University of Utah Health. We are committed to working together to serve the people of Utah and beyond by continually improving individual and community health and quality of life. We strive for excellence in education, research, and clinical care, each mission being vital to one another and to our overall success. Integrity, independent inquiry, and collegiality form the fabric of everyday life for faculty and students.
