Job description

The School of Nursing at Cape Breton University (CBU) invite applications for five (5) tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor. These positions will commence Aug 1st, 2026 (or soon thereafter).

One of Canada’s youngest and most ambitious universities, CBU recognizes its location on Cape Breton Island as part of Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. CBU offers a comprehensive set of liberal arts, science, and professional programs and a unique commitment to community, economic development, aboriginal learning, and research into many aspects of environment and culture.

CBU delivers an authentic multicultural experience to all who become part of its academic community. Surrounded by pristine natural landscape, vibrant culture, and welcoming communities on Canada’s stunning east coast, CBU attracts students from more than 50 countries around the world. Our faculty bring passion to their teaching and research and we are known for our friendly and inclusive culture. Strong community involvement and a spirit of entrepreneurship enhance CBU’s position in post-secondary education.

Cape Breton University is committed to championing the Island’s prosperity by bolstering the overall health and development of Cape Breton Island. The School of Nursing is at the heart of this commitment, helping to meet the evolving needs of the healthcare system in Cape Breton and across the Province of Nova Scotia through innovative research and teaching. CBU’s connection with the Eastern Zone of Nova Scotia Health creates diverse practice-learning opportunities for students specifically in rural, urban and Indigenous health specialties.

The School of Nursing is seeking five dynamic registered nurses to become members of a progressive, energetic and research-focused department. Teaching in a concept-based curriculum, the nursing faculty seeks candidates whose philosophy and commitment are complementary. In addition to teaching and research, the successful candidates may be required to participate in nursing practice with groups of students in various practice settings, simulation and/or labs.

Applicants are expected to demonstrate potential and commitment with regard to teaching, research/creative/scholarly activities and service to Cape Breton University, community and profession.

Successful candidates will have:

  • An undergraduate/graduate degree in nursing (i.e., BScN, MN);
  • A completed PhD or other Doctoral degree in a health-related field (preferred) or education; Master’s prepared applicants with a willingness to complete a Doctoral degree in progress will be considered;
  • A minimum of five years’ experience as a Registered Nurse;
  • An active practicing unrestricted RN license with the Nova Scotia College of Nursing (or be eligible for) prior to commencement of this position;
  • Demonstrated excellence in teaching and mentoring students;
  • A commitment to nursing scholarship and research;
  • Experience in theory-based classroom teaching.

Applications for the successful candidate will include an:

  • cover letter describing the expertise of the applicant
  • statement of teaching philosophy
  • statement of research
  • complete CV including a list of publications
  • evidence of effective teaching
  • list of least three references.
