Job Description

The Johns Hopkins School of Nursing is seeking a part-time faculty educator to support graduate-level instruction in advanced physiology and pathophysiology. The successful candidate will bring broad expertise in integrative human physiology and disease mechanisms and will help students apply biomedical science to clinical assessment, diagnostic reasoning, and management decisions across the lifespan.

Working collaboratively with nursing faculty, the educator will deliver rigorous, clinically relevant online learning experiences; assess student learning; support student success; and contribute to continuous curriculum improvement.

Responsibilities

Teaching and Course Leadership

  • Coordinate and teach graduate-level courses in advanced physiology and pathophysiology for nurse practitioner, nurse anesthesia, and other graduate nursing learners in collaboration with faculty
  • Integrate normal physiology, altered function, cellular and molecular mechanisms, genetics and genomics, clinical manifestations, diagnostic findings, and physiologic responses to treatment across major organ systems and across the lifespan that prepare clinicians for clinical management.
  • In collaboration with the Instructional Design, Technology, and Support team, develop and maintain measurable learning outcomes, updated course materials, online learning resources, and instructional activities aligned with program outcomes and applicable professional and accreditation standards.
  • Use evidence-based online pedagogy and active-learning approaches, including clinically authentic cases, team-based learning, and technology-enhanced instruction, to strengthen clinical reasoning and knowledge application.
  • Collaborate with faculty across advanced physiology/pathophysiology, health assessment, pharmacology, and specialty courses to promote horizontal and vertical curriculum integration and avoid unnecessary content gaps or duplication.
  • Maintain an organized, accessible course site and communicate course expectations, syllabi, schedules, grading criteria, and learning resources clearly and consistently.

  • Contribute to alignment with the AACN Essentials, CCNE standards, and standards applicable to nurse practitioner and nurse anesthesia education.
  • Attend relevant course, program, and faculty meetings
  • Maintain current knowledge in physiology, pathophysiology, health-professions education, online teaching, and the candidate's area of specialization.
