Which companies hire clinical assistant professors in New York?
Companies currently hiring clinical assistant professors in New York include University of Rochester, New York University, and University at Buffalo, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. New York's dense concentration of academic medical centers and research universities means the largest and most consistent hirers are major health system affiliates with accredited professional schools.
Which New York cities have the most clinical assistant professor jobs?

New York City dominates because of its exceptional density of academic medical centers, nursing schools, and professional programs, while Buffalo and Rochester draw volume from anchor institutions like the University at Buffalo and the University of Rochester, which run large health sciences colleges.
Are there remote clinical assistant professor jobs in New York?
Yes, but they're rare. Clinical assistant professor roles are inherently hands-on, requiring direct supervision of students in clinical settings, simulation labs, or patient care environments. About 0% of clinical assistant professor openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those tend to be in didactic, curriculum design, or online program coordination rather than direct clinical instruction.

The most realistic entry path is transitioning from a strong clinical practice background into a part-time or adjunct faculty role before pursuing a full-time appointment. Large New York health systems affiliated with universities, such as those in the SUNY or CUNY networks, regularly bring in clinical preceptors and lab instructors with limited prior teaching experience. Earning a New York State license and completing a graduate teaching practicum or faculty preparation certificate substantially improves candidacy for these entry-level faculty openings.
