Our commitment to employment equity helps achieve inclusion and fairness, brings rich diversity to UBC as a workplace, and creates the necessary conditions for a rewarding career.
Job Description
As UBC's MD Undergraduate Program (MDUP) expands and evolves in its approach to educational delivery across the province and within the Vancouver Fraser Medical Program (VFMP), it is essential that learners within the Program have access to experiences and training environments where they can engage in practical skills-development in collaboration with partners who are representative of those community members the students will serve in clinical practice. This includes engaging with community partners who represent and express diverse gender and cultural identities, as well as lived experiences present within urban, rural and Indigenous communities across the region.
The VFMP Patient Programs portfolio is an essential and collaborative unit that engages community partners who have a desire to participate in, and inform, the future of medical education and patient engagement in the region. This role will support the alignment of best practices in the delivery of a respectful and intersectional community-patient engagement program that aligns with the vision and pillars outlined in the Faculty of Medicine Strategic Plan, especially as related to respectful and outstanding community collaboration, commitment to accessibility, continuous improvement and innovative practice in medical education delivery.
The Medical Undergraduate Degree Program (MDUP) within the University of British Columbia's Faculty of Medicine is delivered in partnership with the University of British Columbia Vancouver and Okanagan campuses (UBCV and UBCO), the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC) and the University of Victoria (UVic) and in close collaboration with the Health Authorities through the province.
