The new Division will be home to 160 faculty and 65 APPs, making it the largest Division in the Department. Hospital Medicine faculty already play key leadership roles in the clinical operations, quality and patient safety improvement, medical education, and informatics programs of the hospitals and Department. The Division Chief will be expected to lead and grow the Division's clinical, educational, quality/safety, and research programs at all three sites. Developing the academic careers of faculty, recruiting new faculty with diverse backgrounds, and promoting health equity will be key responsibilities.

The two adult teaching hospitals on the UT Southwestern campus, Clements and Parkland, are state-of-the-art facilities that opened in 2014 and 2015, respectively.

Candidates must have leadership experience as an academic hospitalist and scholarly achievements in research; delivery innovation; quality, patient safety, and value; and/or medical education. Candidates are expected to contribute to the teaching and training of medical students and house staff. Applicants must be board certified in Internal Medicine and be eligible for Texas medical licensure.
