Job Description

Notre Dame of Maryland University School of Nursing (SON) seeks dedicated and dynamic nursing faculty members to contribute to the growth and excellence of our nursing programs. This full-time position requires a commitment to teaching, curriculum development, student mentorship, and professional scholarship. The SON desires candidates with experience in children and families and community health. Candidates will articulate a commitment to teaching undergraduate students, primarily in the traditional and accelerated second-degree BSN program.  Additionally, the School of Nursing has teaching opportunities in the family nurse and adult-gerontology nursing practitioner programs.  Positions begin fall 2025. 

Notre Dame’s School of Nursing has established a strong reputation among Maryland healthcare organizations for educating competent, compassionate nurses who are prepared to serve diverse patient populations with varying health needs and social determinants of health. Since 1982, the school has graduated more than 4,000 baccalaureate nurses, as well as master’s-prepared nurse educators and administrators.

What sets the School of Nursing apart is its intentional focus on students, caring, transformation, and leadership. These core components are embedded throughout the curriculum, providing nursing students with opportunities to reflect on their practice, uphold caring as the ethical foundation of nursing, and apply compassionate, evidence-based care to drive meaningful change in healthcare settings.

Qualifications

Qualified candidates will be prepared at the doctoral level, Ph.D. or DNP.  A Master of Science with a focus in Nursing (MSN) and community or pediatric experiential qualifications are required.  MSN candidates are expected to enroll in a doctoral program of study within one year of hire and to complete that program within five years of hire.  Candidates with prior teaching experience at the collegiate level are preferred. An active and unencumbered RN license in Maryland or a compact state is required.

NDMU prides itself on its inclusive community and is committed to building an administration, faculty, and staff that reflects the rich diversity of its student body. We particularly welcome applications from members of those groups who have traditionally been underrepresented in American academia.
