The University of Michigan Medical School Department of Learning Health Sciences (DLHS) is a first-in-the-nation basic science department focused on the sciences related to learning across multiple levels of scale (i.e. individual, group, organization, region, nation). DLHS works to improve health in systemic ways by advancing the sciences that make learning effective, routine, and efficient. A successful candidate will be committed to, and will directly contribute to, our goal of revolutionizing learning and transforming health through a continuous cycle of learning and feedback to improve health outcomes. The Department is a basic science department in the University of Michigan Medical School, home to vibrant research and teaching programs, with 25 core faculty and more than 25 joint/adjunct faculty FTE. We offer four degree programs: the Health Infrastructures and Learning Systems Ph.D. and MS program, an online HILS MS Degree, and a Master’s in Health Professions Education. In addition, we offer a Precision Health Certificate program and a professional development program for working professionals, the Medical Education Scholars Program. The Department is also home to the University of Michigan’s Clinical Simulation Center, offering curriculum-based, hands-on, simulation-based learning to trainees and faculty throughout the institution. The Department is situated within the University of Michigan Medical School, founded in 1850 and one of the first major medical schools in the United States to admit female students and students of color. The Medical School has 20 clinical and 9 basic science departments and graduates approximately 170 physicians each year, 64% of which identify as female and 26.2% are underrepresented in medicine. The Medical School is included under the umbrella of Michigan Medicine, which is the academic medical center of the University of Michigan. Within Michigan Medicine is the Office for Health Equity and Inclusion (OHEI), a unit focused on developing mechanisms for inclusion, diversity and cultural sensitivity among faculty, students, and staff at Michigan Medicine. Michigan Medicine recently launched its Anti-Racism Oversight Committee (AROC), a committee of leaders from around the institution tasked with developing and recommending actions necessary to eliminate racism and inequities existing at Michigan Medicine. Founded in 1817, the University of Michigan has a long and distinguished history as one of the first public universities in the nation. It is one of only two public institutions consistently ranked among the nation's top ten universities. The University has one of the largest health care complexes in the world and one of the best library systems in the United States. With more than $1.53 billion in research expenditures annually, the University has the second largest research expenditure among all universities in the nation. The University has an annual general fund budget of more than $2.3 billion and an endowment valued at more than $12.5 billion. The University places a premium on the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion, including a dedicated Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (odei.umich.edu) that serves as a resource for schools, departments, faculty, staff and trainees.
