Applicants must have a commitment to excellence in clinical service and teaching. Applicants must have a DVM or equivalent degree.

A strong and varied caseload catering to a mix of equine disciplines is coupled with a collaborative environment within the Galbreath Equine Center.

The service is dedicated to facilitating growth of the successful candidate’s specific interests. Teaching responsibilities will include lectures, labs, and clinical teaching of equine surgery to professional students, interns, residents, and graduate students. Sponsored research is not required for clinical track faculty, yet clinical research, publications or other scholarly activities to advance clinical veterinary medicine are expected and encouraged.
Every faculty member is expected to participate in professional outreach, committee service, and curriculum development. There is a mentoring program for new faculty members to support their academic development as teachers and investigators. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to integrate into the College’s signature programs (https://vet.osu.edu/research/signature-programs) for collaborative research within the college, Center for Clinical and Translational Science (https://ctsi.osu.edu) and Colleges of Medicine, Pharmacy, Engineering, and Nationwide Children’s Hospital.

Opportunities also exist for faculty to develop collaborative research with scientists in the Departments of Veterinary Biosciences and Veterinary Preventive Medicine.
The Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences supports a faculty of over 75 clinical specialists, educators, and investigators along with extensive training programs for professional students, interns, residents, and graduate students. The Equine Surgery service (https://vmc.vet.osu.edu/services?service_type=equine) is located within the Galbreath Equine Center with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, including a 12,000 sq. ft. equine performance arena, digital radiography, ultrasonography, fluoroscopy, 128-slice CT, a 3 Tesla MRI, nuclear medicine, an interventional radiology suite, electrochemotherapy unit, locking compression plates, arthroscopy, endoscopy, laparoscopy, standing surgery rooms, three surgery suites, and in-house farrier services. The successful candidate will join a distinguished equine surgery program that includes six ACVS diplomates and three ACVS surgery residents, as well as four ACVECC diplomates. In addition, equine internal medicine and ambulatory services are components of our integrated equine program. The equine services are supported by world-class ancillary services with dedicated large animal anesthesia and radiology technicians as well as a theriogenology service.
A priority of our equine section is maintaining a team atmosphere and working together both in clinics and in teaching. Collegiality, civility, mutual support, and respect for others are strongly held values in the College of Veterinary Medicine. We support diverse beliefs and the free exchange of ideas and expect that faculty, staff, and students promote these values and apply them in a professional manner in all academic endeavors.
