The CVDL
primarily serves Cummings School hospitals and clinics, which care for approximately 100,000 animals per year, and supports the clinical, teaching, and research missions of the school.

The Director, reporting to the Dean, will be responsible for all aspects of CVDL operations including strategic planning and personnel, material, and fiscal management. Additionally, the Director will have the critical and exciting opportunity to
lead our efforts to identify areas for expansion of in-house testing. The CVDL offers necropsy, biopsy, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, clinical pathology, and other related diagnostic services. The CVDL is currently supported by four anatomic pathologists, four clinical pathologists, an assistant director (staff position), and 13-15 technical staff. We are in the process of reestablishing our anatomic pathology and clinical pathology residency programs.

The Anatomic Pathology Service processes approximately 2,300 biopsies and 550 necropsies per year. The Clinical Pathology Laboratory performs hematology and clinical chemistry tests, urinalyses, fecal tests, cytology/fluid analyses, coagulation tests and a variety of other miscellaneous diagnostic tests serving over 50,000 clinical cases per year. We are exploring expansion in areas such as microbiology testing and serology, molecular, and endocrinology tests; these are currently sent to outside diagnostic laboratories. The CVDL receives a rich diversity of cases, both routine and unique, providing ample teaching and research resources.

The successful candidate will join our dynamic team to become the 5th Small Animal ECCM faculty member and an integral member of the service, which includes 4 Diplomates of ACVECC (and an additional 3 large animal Diplomates of ACVECC), 5 residents, 2 ECCM Interns, and 20-30 service-dedicated licensed veterinary nurses. The Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences comprises over 30 faculty and has an onsite, state-of-the-art Veterinary Medical Center (VMC). The VMC provides outstanding patient care and is staffed with highly qualified veterinary technicians, veterinary assistants, social workers, and other care providers to support the specialty services. In addition to ECCM, the VMC is well represented in specialty areas including highly active soft tissue and orthopedic surgery services, internal medicine, medical oncology, radiation oncology, neurology, cardiology, anesthesiology, sports medicine and rehabilitation, theriogenology, primary care, interventional radiology, behavior medicine, ophthalmology, and dermatology.

Support from the specialty services for the ECCM Service is robust, including but not limited to daily (7:00 AM to 10:00 PM) full clinical laboratory and imaging coverage, a dedicated emergency surgery resident, and advanced cross-sectional imaging modalities available after hours. The ER/ICU was recently rebuilt to create a large, open-concept ICU with a dedicated quiet (feline) room, two mirrored isolation wards, and four treatment stations, all with a centralized workstation allowing the team to monitor patients closely and communicate effectively. Please see https://youtu.be/bCLQOho0wtE for a brief view of the facility during its dedication. The ICU currently utilizes advanced treatment capabilities, including Draeger Evita Infinity and Respironics Esprit long-term ventilators and the Prismaflex CRRT system (capabilities for hemodialysis, hemoperfusion, ultrafiltration, and therapeutic plasma exchange). In addition, the hospital boasts an interventional radiology suite, a wound management suite, 10 operating rooms, Storz HD video laparoscopy/thoracoscopy towers, Zeiss operating microscope, GE Revolution 64-slice helical CT, OEC mobile C-arm, Siemens 1.5 Tesla MRI, Scintron nuclear medicine suite, Varian linear accelerator, Olympus and Storz video-endoscopy.

The ECCM service has a highly successful resident training program with a busy caseload (>11,000 cases annually) and experienced, supportive faculty. The service sees 30-70 new cases daily and manages an average of 10-15 as inpatients. Our service philosophy focuses on active case management by all team members. The ECCM Faculty function as a highly cohesive group, and we value and are committed to continuing to foster this exceptional team dynamic.

The successful candidates’ responsibilities will include management of ECCM cases, clinical instruction of house officers and students, assistance in the administration of the ECCM Service, and a commitment to scholarly contributions in the candidates’ areas of interest and expertise. Ample opportunity exists for interested individuals to become involved in scholarly activity related to veterinary medical education and curriculum development. Participation in the pre-clinical teaching curriculum and committee assignments is also expected. Assignments of clinical service, teaching, and scholarly activity are negotiable with the Department Chairperson. Evaluations and promotions are based on the faculty member’s performance within the agreed assignments.

Such activities are encouraged at both the Departmental and College level, and support is available for grant writing, acquiring external funding, and processing grant submissions.

The role of the successful applicant will encompass clinical service, education, and research/scholarly activity. The amount of time dedicated to each of these endeavors is flexible and will be geared towards the interests, strengths, and qualifications of the applicant. Tenure system appointments require a greater percentage of time dedicated to both independent and collaborative, externally funded research, with less time devoted to clinical service.

Health Programs (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 Small Animal Clinical Sciences typically have 50-70% clinical assignments devoted to clinical and pre-clinical instruction, patient care services, and the general administrative efforts of the Department and College. In addition, HP faculty are expected to be active in research and other scholarly endeavors.

Assistant/Associate Dean for Clinical Services and Director of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital

The University of Illinois invites applications and nominations for the position of Assistant/Associate Dean for Clinical Services and Director of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital in the College of Veterinary Medicine. The successful candidate will serve as the leader of the College’s clinical services.

The vision of the College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is to be “a pre-eminent public CVM, provide a transformative educational experience for our students, create and communicate knowledge that changes the world, deliver outstanding clinical service to our patients and clients, and pursue excellence in all our endeavors.” The College values collegiality and professionalism in all our interactions. The College also values, nurtures, and respects all members of its community and ensures an environment of inclusion where all students, faculty, and staff are inspired and empowered to achieve their full potential. In 2023, Forbes ranked the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as #9 among all US public colleges on the basis of return on investment, student success, student debt, and alumni leadership and influence. Only one other campus featuring a veterinary college ranked above Illinois.

The University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine was founded in 1944 as the nation’s 11th veterinary college and admitted its first class of 24 students in 1948. However, the history of veterinary education, research, and service on the Urbana campus began decades earlier with the appointment of Dr. H. J. Detmers as Professor of Veterinary Science in 1870, shortly after the University was founded as a land-grant institution in 1867. From these beginnings, the college has grown to be ranked 13th in the U.S. and 37th in the world in the 2019 QS World University Rankings of veterinary science programs.

The University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital (UIVTH) on the Urbana campus is comprised of a small and a large animal clinic encompassing 233,540 sq. ft. The UIVTH added the Veterinary Medicine South Clinic to house our primary care and zoological medicine outpatient practices, shelter medicine program, and Wildlife Medical Clinic. A wildlife ambassador residence to support the wildlife outreach program was completed in April 2020, and an educational classroom is being developed. Additional upgrades to the UIVTH include a Varian TrueBeam linear accelerator installed in 2020 and an 8,000 sq. ft. small animal surgical wing addition to the small animal clinic, which was completed in 2022. Renovation and remodeling of the large animal clinic, including expansions of the equine surgical suites, is scheduled to be completed by October 2023. A $15.0M gift from a grateful client was matched with an internal investment from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign to expand the UIVTH’s facilities for cancer care. A new wing featuring a dedicated entrance for oncology clients, new oncology exam and treatment rooms, and space devoted to clinical trials for cancer patients is slated to open in 2025.

The clinical services on the College of Veterinary Medicine campus in Urbana serve as the primary clinical teaching laboratory for veterinary students in all years of the veterinary curriculum. Primary care practices in Chicago (IL) for small animals and Farmer City (IL) for equine patients contribute to the teaching caseload. The Veterinary Teaching Hospital reported 36,000 unique patient visits in the past fiscal year, with a caseload of approximately 30% large animal and 70% small animal. Zoological species represent about 10% of the reported small animal caseload. Annual revenue generated exceeded $22.0M. A full complement of specialty services makes the UIVTH the premier referral center for veterinary patients throughout central Illinois, in addition to drawing referrals from elsewhere in Illinois and neighboring states. Additionally, both in-house services and satellite clinical units associated with the College have established themselves as centers of excellence for general health and primary care of large, small, and zoological animal species.

The Assistant/Associate Dean for Clinical Services and Director of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital will serve as the chief administrator and financial officer for the UIVTH. In cooperation with the Hospital Board, the Assistant/Associate Dean for Clinical Services and Director of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital provides direction and leadership in all aspects of the UIVTH’s role as a place to teach, learn, practice, do research, and obtain healthcare for animals in support of the College of Veterinary Medicine, while maintaining a positive working environment for employees and trainees. Additionally, this position provides strategic and budgetary support for all clinical services in the College of Veterinary Medicine, including the Medical District Veterinary Clinic in Chicago, Spay-Neuter and Community Outreach Program in Urbana, and Midwest Equine in Farmer City.

Required qualifications: The successful candidate must have a DVM degree or equivalent, at least five years of veterinary clinical experience, experience managing large business operations, and eligibility to hold a veterinary license in Illinois. Candidates with an MBA or board certification in a specialty recognized by the AVMA would be given preference.

The successful candidate should understand the role of a major veterinary teaching hospital within a land-grant university and embrace its tripartite mission of teaching, research, and clinical service. The successful candidate should be an excellent communicator, possess strong interpersonal, administrative, leadership, and business management skills, be a strategic thinker, and be an excellent mentor. The successful candidate will be appointed as either a Clinical (non-tenure track), Tenure Track, or Tenured faculty member at the Associate or Full Professor level, depending upon qualifications.

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is a comprehensive and major public land-grant university (Doctoral/Research University-Extensive) that is ranked among the best in the world. Chartered in 1867, it provides undergraduate and graduate education in more than 150 fields of study, conducts theoretical and applied research, and provides public service to the state and the nation. The University is located in the twin cities of Champaign and Urbana, which have a combined population of 100,000 and are situated about 140 miles south of Chicago, 120 miles west of Indianapolis, and 170 northeast of St. Louis. The University employs 3,000 faculty members who serve 31,000 undergraduates and 12,000 graduate and professional students; approximately 25% of faculty receives campus-wide recognition each year for excellence in teaching. More information about the campus is available at http://www.illinois.edu.
