The School of Nursing at UBC is the oldest university-based nursing program in Canada. We have an international reputation for excellence in research and scholarship, and we value health equity, social justice, and community engagement. We offer a full range of innovative programs, including an intensive upper-division BSN, MN-NP, MSN, MHLP, and PhD degrees. UBC’s Vancouver campus is situated at the tip of Point Grey on the unceded lands of the Musqueam people, surrounded by forest, ocean and mountains. The School also has a location in Surrey, across from the Surrey Memorial Hospital, for the NP program, where some NP theory and skills lab courses are taught. UBC seeks to recruit and retain a workforce that is representative of Vancouver's diversity, to maintain the excellence of the University, and to offer students richly varied disciplines, perspectives and ways of knowing and learning.
The successful applicant will be currently credentialed and an active Nurse Practitioner holding a Master’s or doctoral degree in Nursing, and must hold NP registration with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).

Ideally, they will also have some experience in classroom teaching, group learning facilitation, skills lab instruction, as well as curriculum development and implementation. The successful candidate will teach core and clinical courses at the graduate level in the NP program, and provide service to the University, the School, and to the profession.
