Nicosia, Cyprus
The School of Medicine at European University Cyprus, an education- and research-intensive academic unit within a university that is internationally ranked and committed to excellence in medical education and scholarship, is inviting applications for a range of academic positions spanning multiple disciplines in medicine. The School’s mission is to cultivate an environment where teaching, research and clinical engagement merge to contribute to the medical profession and broader scientific knowledge. These appointments are part of an initiative to strengthen faculty capacity in a fully accredited medical programme that adheres to EU and international standards, with experienced scholars joining a globally oriented academic community.
This recruitment seeks candidates at various academic ranks, including Lecturer, Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor, to support teaching and research across core medical disciplines. Fields of interest include specialties such as biostatistics, histology/embryology, obstetrics and gynaecology, pathology, ENT and potentially other areas aligned with the School’s curriculum and research priorities. Appointees will contribute to curriculum delivery, student supervision, scholarly activity and academic service within the School’s framework.
Eligibility for these roles generally requires a doctoral degree (such as PhD, MD or equivalent) in a relevant medical or health sciences discipline. Candidates for entry-level or assistant professorial posts should present evidence of research potential and teaching competence, while more senior ranks require progressively extensive experience in university-level education, research leadership and academic contributions. Demonstrated ability to engage with international research networks, supervise students, and contribute to institutional objectives is valued.
Applicants should possess strong communication skills in English; proficiency in additional languages may be beneficial depending on programme delivery contexts. A commitment to high-quality medical instruction, innovative pedagogical practices and active involvement in scholarly communities forms part of the expected expertise.
