healthcare while supporting the holistic success and wellbeing of Tulane students.
The Director will be joining a vibrant and mission-driven academic community at an important moment of opportunity. Student Health is poised for dedicated leadership to build a foundation of trust, excellence, and forward momentum. This is a compelling opportunity for a seasoned collegiate health leader to guide a dedicated clinical team, strengthen operations and culture, and help position Student Health as a critical partner in Tulane’s broader health and wellness ecosystem.
Located in the unique and iconic city of New Orleans, Tulane is a highly regarded and selective independent research university and a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU). Tulane offers undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees across the liberal arts, science and engineering, architecture, business, law, social work, medicine, and public health. Tulane University Campus Health is fully accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) and serves more than 14,000 students across the Uptown and Downtown campuses.
Reporting to the Assistant Vice President for Campus Health & Wellness, the Director of Student Health will be a collaborative, clinically credible leader who can balance operational oversight with a student-centered approach to care. The Director will oversee primary care, sexual and reproductive health, travel medicine, immunizations, allergy services, pharmacy operations, and medical oversight of Tulane Emergency Medical Services, while supervising physicians, advanced practice providers, and partnering closely with nursing leadership. Through clear expectations, strong communication, and consistent leadership presence, the Director will foster a positive staff culture and advance service excellence across Student Health. The Director must be a highly effective administrator, bringing strong organizational leadership, operational acumen, and the ability to effectively manage complex systems and processes.
Beyond day-to-day clinical operations, the Director will contribute to university-wide efforts to anticipate and respond to student health needs, including quality improvement initiatives, accreditation, and crisis response. As a member of the Campus Health & Wellness leadership team and the Division of Student Affairs Directors’ Team, the Director will work closely with campus partners to ensure Student Health remains responsive, integrated, and aligned with institutional priorities.
