GEORGIA

Job Description:

Georgia Southern University, a member institution of the University System of Georgia, invites nominations and applications for the position of Assistant/Associate/Full Professor of Environmental Health Sciences in the Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health. Georgia Southern University is classified by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching as a Doctoral/Research institution. Accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Georgia Southern offers 123 academic majors in a comprehensive array of baccalaureate degrees and selected master`s and doctoral programs. The University has earned national accreditation in 66 program areas from 21 accrediting bodies. Academic programs are organized in eight colleges: Business Administration, Education, Health and Human Sciences, Information Technology, Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, the Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health, the Allen E. Paulson College of Science and Technology, and the Jack N. Averitt College of Graduate Studies. The University awarded 2,660 degrees in 2005-2006.

A residential university with a Fall 2006 enrollment of over 16,000 students, Georgia Southern is the largest university in the southern half of Georgia and apart from the three research universities, the most comprehensive center of public higher education in the state. One of the top choices in Georgia for new freshmen, including HOPE Scholars, Georgia Southern enrolls an increasingly selective student body representing all of Georgia, 48 states, and more than 85 nations. Ninety percent of undergraduates are full-time students. The University is enhancing its academic profile through higher admission standards, an expanded Honors Program, and scholarships for academically talented students.

Georgia Southern University is committed to advancing the State of Georgia and the region through the benefits of higher education, offering baccalaureate through doctoral degrees, and a variety of outreach programs. The University fosters access to its educational programs, provides a comprehensive and fulfilling university experience, and enhances quality of life in the region through collaborative relationships supporting education, health care and human services, cultural experiences, scientific and technological advancement, athletics, and regional development. Georgia Southern celebrates its 2006 centennial with a strategic plan to advance the University to the top tier of national rankings in its class.

The 675-acre park-like campus continues an era of capital construction that has opened new facilities for colleges and academic programs, student recreation and development, university housing, athletics, and public service. The learning environment is enhanced by a museum of cultural and natural history, a botanical garden, a unique wildlife education center, a performing arts center, and a continuing education and conference center. The University`s Division I athletic teams compete in the Southern Conference. The campus is located in Statesboro, a safe, hospitable, and progressive Main Street community of 30,000, an hour from historic Savannah and beach resorts, and approximately 200 miles from Atlanta.

On January 14, 2004, the Board of Regents established the first School of Public Health in the University System of Georgia and named it the Jiann-Ping Hsu School of Public Health. The establishment of the School was made possible by a generous gift from Dr. Karl E. Peace, in memory and honor of his wife, Dr. Jiann-Ping Hsu. In order to position the Jiann-Ping Hsu School of Public Health for accreditation by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH), the School was transitioned to the Jiann-Ping Hsu College of Public Health (JPHCOPH) effective January 1, 2006. Our mission is to invest the necessary resources to build an outstanding College of Public Health that will be recognized nationally for teaching, research, and service. Justification for selection of a College of Public Health at Georgia Southern University is directly related to the potential impact this institution will have among rural and underserved residents of the state.

The JPHCOPH is embarking on a massive and sustained recruitment effort. We are not only seeking academicians with strong potential for teaching, research, and service, but we are seeking individuals who will embrace the challenge of building a College that can be accredited by the CEPH. Currently, the JPHCOPH offers the Master of Health Services Administration (M.H.S.A.) and the Master of Public Health (M.P.H.) degrees, with emphasis areas in Biostatistics, Community Health, Environmental Health Sciences, Epidemiology, and Health Services Policy and Management. In addition, the Doctor of Public Health (Dr.P.H.) in Biostatistics, Community Health Behavior and Education, and Public Health Leadership will be initiated Fall 2007.

The JPHCOPH Health also houses the Karl E. Peace Center for Biostatistics the Center for Rural Health and Research, and the Center for Survey Research and Health Information
