COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE BACKGROUND
Veterinary science courses have been taught at MSU since the institution's founding in 1855. The College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) was formally established as a four-year, degree-granting program in 1910.

Today, the college includes three clinical departments -- Small Animal Clinical Sciences, Large-Animal Clinical Sciences, and Pathobiology and Diagnostic Investigation; two affiliated biomedical science departments -- Microbiology and Molecular Genetics and Pharmacology and Toxicology; two service units -- the Veterinary Medical Center and the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory; and several research centers.

Research at the MSU CVM includes interdisciplinary, innovative, and high-impact investigations that are central to the history, present, and future, and underpin our exceptional education and unsurpassed clinical care.  The expansive CVM Endowed Research Funds support graduate student, young investigator and pilot projects within the MSU CVM.  The College boasts 9 endowed research chairs in comparative orthopedics, feline health, canine health, farm animal health and well-being, antimicrobial resistance, equine, and small and large animal clinical sciences.

In addition to the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree program, the college offers certificate and bachelor's degree programs in veterinary nursing, and advanced graduate degrees (master's and doctor of philosophy) through the Comparative Medicine and Integrative Biology (CMIB) program.

The CVM is fortunate to have an outstanding faculty, all of whom hold the doctor of veterinary medicine degree and/or the doctor of philosophy degree. Nearly all of the specialty boards recognized by the American Veterinary Medical Association are represented on the faculty. Many of these faculty members are leaders in their fields, both nationally and internationally.

MSU has a long-standing commitment to equal opportunity, affirmative action, and multiculturalism. The CVM has attained national recognition for its leadership in programs for the encouragement of underrepresented groups at the preprofessional, professional, and advanced studies levels, as well as for increased diversity in its faculty, students, and staff.

Special opportunities for pre-veterinary and professional students to participate in international veterinary activities further expand appreciation of different cultures. Indeed, international experience and opportunities abound in the college for both faculty and students. Nearly 300 individuals associated with the college have been involved in activities in 36 countries. A special endowment provides funds to support student travel abroad.

The abundance and variety of animal agriculture and companion animals in Michigan provides the college with one of the largest clinical and diagnostic caseloads in the country. Educational and research opportunities are considerably enhanced by this large caseload.

The college also takes seriously its obligation to meet the needs of society in addition to clinical services and education. The college has expertise in public health, biomedical and comparative medical research, ecosystem and environmental management, and the multiple facets that compose our complex global food system. CVM also supports key animal health programs conducted by both the Michigan Department of Agriculture and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The mission of the college is to be inclusive as we learn, discover, heal, and protect. We, as a College, aim to identify, attract, and retain talented students, faculty, and staff reflective of the diversity of the populations in our state, the nation, and the world. Our academic, scholarly, and service roles, considered separately and collectively, form the foundation of an inclusive culture that is committed to respecting, nurturing, and advancing all individuals.

We are committed to promoting the principles of equal opportunity and multiculturalism where all individuals are valued, respected, provided opportunity to flourish and open doors in their pursuit of excellence. We encourage and welcome our community to share ideas with us surrounding opportunities to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The College's vision is to be the destination for teaching, innovation, care, and service. Six goals, backed by specific strategies, guide our organization as we move forward.

Our diverse faculty focuses on areas ranging from dairy, food animal, and specialized equine services to intensive research and student training. They work closely with students pursuing DVM degrees, veterinarians in internship and residency programs, and MS and PhD students. Learning to better understand, diagnose, and treat disease takes place in some of the most advanced facilities and laboratories. Faculty and students work together to find new solutions and put them into practice for a better world.

LCS educational facilities include the Large Animal Clinic in the Veterinary Medical Center, where faculty members and students provide emergency care as well as diagnostics, medical and surgical treatment, and therapeutic services for horses, cattle and other ruminants, as well as other animals including camelids and pet pigs. It also coordinates the Summer Food Systems Fellowship Program - a unique partnership between the College and industry partners, which ensures the supply of well-trained veterinarians to work within the food animal industry. The McPhail Center houses a full sized arena with competition footing, forceplates, a farrier shop, an indoor lunging arena, and an overground endoscopy.

Our faculty members are innovative researchers, dedicated teachers, and gifted practitioners. Their combined accomplishments have made us one of the top-ranked veterinary schools in the country. Every day, faculty members advance knowledge in a broad range of specialties and create new knowledge that is rapidly put into practice in a clinical setting. Our students learn from some of the brightest, most creative minds in veterinary medicine.

We have three medicine and three surgery residents working closely with the faculty researchers and clinicians, and support staff help make sure everything runs smoothly in the lab and the clinic.

Research in the Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences is clustered around several cores of research excellence: preharvest food safety, inflammation and metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal diseases, and equine sports medicine and rehabilitation. The cores foster interdisciplinary collaboration, build on strengths of the college and university, and are conceptually broad to incorporate contributions from our diverse faculty.

The Opportunity
The Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences at the College of Veterinary Medicine, Michigan State University, invites applications for a Tenure System or Health Programs Faculty Appointment System (HP) position in Large Animal Surgery. Tenure system appointments typically have 40% or more of assignable time devoted to research and scholarship, with another 40-50% devoted to clinical instruction, patient care services, and periodic emergency coverage.  HP appointments are unique to Michigan State University Colleges of Human, Osteopathic, Veterinary Medicine, and Nursing and were created to enhance programs in clinical education, patient care services, and clinical research. HP faculty appointed in the Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences typically have 60% or more of their time devoted to clinical instruction and patient care services. In addition, HP faculty are expected to be active in research and other scholarly endeavors. Both appointment types are expected to contribute to preclinical teaching and the general administrative efforts of the Department and College. The HP position is a multi-year renewable appointment.  We are looking to fill multiple positions, either appointment type is available at the Assistant, Associate or Professor rank depending on qualifications and experience.
