Careers at RFCUNYJob Openings

The CUNY School of Medicine (CUNY MED) is the only medical school in the City University of New York (CUNY) system. Our innovative curriculum allows students to complete their undergraduate Bachelor of Science (BS) and Doctor of Medicine (MD) degrees in seven years. The CUNY School of Medicine also offers a Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies (PA). Our mission is to provide access to medical education to talented individuals from social, ethnic, and racial backgrounds who are historically underrepresented in medicine and to develop health professionals committed to practicing in underserved communities with a special emphasis on primary care and reducing health disparities.

As the recipient of a Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMI) U54 Cooperative Agreement, CUNY MED has established the NYCenter for Minority Health Equity, and Social Justice (NYC-MHESJ), whose mission is to address and advance the science of health disparities affecting racial/ethnic minorities and underserved communities in New York City. The NYC-MHESJ is aligned with the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) vision to advance the science of minority health and health disparities research by developing & strengthening the research infrastructure to conduct state-of-the-art research and foster the next generation of underrepresented scientists and enable them to engage in rigorous, mentored research experiences focused on diseases that disproportionately affect minority populations experiencing health disparities.

Under the general supervision of the RCMI NYC-MHESJ Multiple Principal Investigators (MPIs) and reporting to the RCMI Internal Evaluator, the IT Evaluation Manager (ITEM) is responsible for creating and maintaining the NYC-MHESJ IT network interface, including Intranet, user dashboard, and backup systems. The ITEM will collaborate with NYC-MHESJ leadership, external constituents, and NIMHD’s Division of Policy, Planning, & Measurement to manage and support training on learning evaluation activities, including instrument development and data collection. The ITEM will merge personnel, learning management, and longitudinal survey data from multiple complex systems to elucidate the impact of organizational characteristics, research skill reinforcement strategies, strength-based engagement, and interpersonal helping skills on improving the overall quality of research activities among NYC-MHESJ populations. Other evaluation activities include developing knowledge tests, collecting, analyzing, and reporting on participant data generated from multiple surveys, and producing real-time reports and dashboards so that results will inform ongoing program development and quality improvement.
