Clinical Fieldwork Supervisor

UWM is a Carnegie R1 institution with strong community engagement and an access mission. Our institution has a deep commitment to the success of all students, particularly those who have been historically underrepresented in higher education.

The Clinical Fieldwork Supervisor provides instructional, supervisory, and operational support across three clinical education pathways: the medical internship program, the education internship program, and the undergraduate clinical training program. The position ensures consistent, high quality supervision; timely feedback; and coordinated communication with clinical instructors and program faculty. Responsibilities include direct student supervision, DPI required observations, instructional duties, grading, and ongoing support for students and clinical partners. The role also includes flexible workload capacity to address the unpredictable, time-sensitive issues inherent to clinical education.

Work will involve travel between education sites as well as work performed on the UW-Milwaukee campus.

Anticipated start date May 2026.
