Position Description
The Department of Global Health and Population at the Harvard T.H.

Chan School of Public Health invites applications for the position of Assistant or Associate Professor of Maternal Health and Demography.

We seek an innovative scholar to make significant contributions in the areas of maternal health and demographic methods in a diverse, multidisciplinary department with a long history of excellence in education and research.

Candidates should demonstrate significant research and teaching activity at and around the intersection of reproductive health, maternal health, adolescent health, fertility, population health, the impact of sex and gender on health, and social determinants of health, particularly the impact of racial and ethnic disparities on maternal health.

Candidates should also demonstrate an interest in examining these areas globally through a life cycle approach.

The ability to teach effectively in the areas of maternal health and demography, to advise and mentor a diverse group of graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and to contribute to collaborative research, service, and teaching related to maternal health and demography is also a priority.

The Department and School will look to the successful candidate to expand and develop maternal health within the population health sciences.


The Department of Global Health and Population (GHP) seeks to improve global health through education, research, and service from a population-based perspective.

The 21st century has arrived with a complex set of demographic patterns, disease burdens, and health policies. These create challenges that affect all societies, rich and poor, developed and developing.

The Department's approach to these problems combines the analysis of population and health using quantitative and qualitative methods, the study of policies that affect health, and a concern with the politics and ethics of health and development.

Situated within a vibrant, globally engaged school of public health, the work of the Department of Global Health and Population can be seen across these critical research areas:
Health Care Systems
Health Equity and Human Rights
Health Policy Prevention
Infectious and Chronic Diseases
Decision Science
Program Evaluation
Nutrition and Global Health
Social and Economic Development
Women's Health and Children's Health

At the Harvard T.H.

Chan School of Public Health, we believe diversity is integral to the Harvard experience and our mission of improving public health education, research, and policy.

Diversity of cultural backgrounds, identities, lived experiences, perspectives, and ways of understanding the world enriches our community and enables us to best meet the public health needs of the United States and the world.

Ongoing learning and development related to diversity allows for both individual and institutional growth and is necessary to foster and sustain a culture of inclusion.

To achieve this, we are committed to ensuring equitable access to opportunities for learning, living, and working at Harvard T.H.

Chan.

We maintain an unwavering dedication to diversity, inclusion, and belonging as core to our institutional values and to actively address racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, gender bias, and all forms of discrimination.
