For Prospective Adjunct & Affiliate Faculty

Thank you for your interest in applying for an Adjunct or Affiliate Faculty position in the Pediatrics program.  All Adjunct & Affiliate Faculty appointments are determined by the Chair of the Department of Pediatrics, with recommendation from the Adjunct & Affiliate Faculty Committee.

An adjunct faculty member is someone employed in the community (but not at an affiliate site) who teaches medical students and/or residents.

An affiliate faculty member is someone employed by the University of Minnesota's affiliate sites and teaches medical students and/or residents.  The affiliate sites are Hennepin County Medical Center and Children's Hospitals, Minneapolis and St. Paul.

The same application process applies for both Adjunct and Affiliate faculty.
