Faculty Position Green Card Jobs
Faculty Position roles at U.S. universities and research institutions are among the most established pathways to employment-based green card sponsorship. Many academic employers routinely file PERM labor certifications for tenure-track and research faculty, supporting EB-2 and EB-3 petitions that lead to permanent residency rather than a temporary visa status.

Pediatric Hematology Oncology Faculty Position – Pediatric Transplant, Cell & Gene Therapy
Cleveland Clinic, one of the world’s most distinguished academic medical centers, is seeking a Pediatric Hematology Oncology physician to join our expanding Pediatric Transplant, Cellular, and Gene Therapy (BMT) program. This growth will allow us to care for an increasing number of patients across the region.
This position offers the opportunity to practice in a highly collaborative and academically rich environment, supported by the extensive resources of Cleveland Clinic Children’s Institute and the Taussig Cancer Institute, while delivering exceptional care to pediatric and young adult patients.
The selected candidate will join a vibrant and expanding division that includes 21 Pediatric Hematologists/Oncologists, two PhDs, 10 nurse practitioners, and dedicated disease-based care coordinators, collectively providing more than 10,000 patient visits annually. Programs encompass the full spectrum of pediatric hematology and oncology services, including FACT-accredited Blood and Marrow Transplantation.
The division actively participates in multiple collaborative groups, including but not limited to COG, ENGRAFT, NEXT Consortium, NAPAAC, NICER Consortium, Sunrise Consortium, Beat Childhood Cancer Consortium, and the Sickle Cell Disease Alliance. The department also maintains a well-established ACGME-accredited Pediatric Hematology/Oncology fellowship program.
The BMT program works closely with the Children’s Institute, Taussig Cancer Institute, and Case Comprehensive Cancer Center. The successful candidate will join a dedicated BMT team consisting of four pediatric hematology/oncology physicians, six advanced practice providers supporting inpatient and outpatient care, and two BMT care coordinators. Program faculty hold leadership roles within national foundations and consortia focused on transplantation and cellular therapies.
The ideal candidate will contribute to continued program growth by caring for pediatric BMT, cellular, and gene therapy patients, providing second opinions (both virtually and in person), and expanding access to care for patients nationally and internationally. The candidate is also expected to support the development of new treatment approaches through clinical trials and to advance outcomes through clinical, prospective, and retrospective research efforts. A strong commitment to education and mentorship of fellows, residents, medical students, and other trainees is expected.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
Candidates must be board-certified in Pediatric Hematology/Oncology (or combined Internal Medicine Hematology / Pediatric Hematology-Oncology) and eligible for appointment at the Assistant, Associate, or Professor level, commensurate with experience and academic achievement. Appointment will be through the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University. Substantial research resources are available through the Lerner Research Institute, and quality and continuous improvement efforts are supported by Cleveland Clinic Children’s dedicated experts.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Faculty Position
Document your foreign degree equivalency early
U.S. academic employers filing PERM for EB-2 faculty roles need your foreign degree evaluated against U.S. standards. Get a credential evaluation from a NACES-member agency before applying so hiring committees and immigration counsel aren't waiting on paperwork mid-process.
Target institutions with established PERM filing history
Research universities, R1 and R2 institutions, and large community college systems routinely sponsor faculty through PERM. Departments that have hired international scholars before already have immigration counsel in place, which significantly shortens your path from offer to I-140 filing.
Understand how faculty PERM differs from standard recruitment
DOL allows universities to use a special handling procedure for faculty roles, substituting competitive academic recruitment for the standard PERM advertising requirements. Your employer must initiate this process during the hiring cycle, not after the offer, so confirm their timeline before accepting.
Search green-card-sponsoring faculty roles through Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to filter Faculty Position openings by employers with active PERM and I-140 filing history. Targeting institutions that have sponsored international faculty before cuts guesswork out of your job search and focuses your applications where sponsorship is already a standard practice.
Verify prevailing wage requirements for your department and rank
Faculty salaries must meet DOL prevailing wage levels before PERM can be filed. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up the wage for your specific SOC code and institution's geographic area, then confirm your offered salary meets or exceeds that threshold before the offer letter is finalized.
Align your EB-2 versus EB-3 classification with your credentials
If your role requires a master's degree or equivalent and your employer can document that, EB-2 classification shortens priority date waits for most nationalities. If the position is categorized under EB-3, confirm whether your country of birth faces a backlog before committing to that pathway.

Find Faculty Position JobsFaculty Position Green Card Sponsorship: Frequently Asked Questions
Do most U.S. universities sponsor green cards for faculty positions?
Research universities, liberal arts colleges, and many community colleges routinely sponsor international faculty through the PERM labor certification process. Institutions with established international hiring pipelines already have immigration counsel and standard procedures in place. Smaller or teaching-focused schools may be willing but lack experience, so it's worth asking directly during the recruitment process how they've handled prior international faculty sponsorship.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B sponsorship for faculty roles?
H-1B sponsorship is temporary and subject to a cap and annual lottery, though cap-exempt employers like universities can sponsor H-1B at any time. Green card sponsorship through PERM and I-140 is permanent and has no annual cap at the petition stage. The process takes longer, typically two to four years before you receive your green card, but it results in lawful permanent residency rather than a status you must renew.
What is the special handling PERM procedure and how does it affect faculty hiring?
DOL allows universities to use the special handling procedure for faculty roles, which lets the competitive academic recruitment process itself satisfy the labor market test instead of the standard PERM advertising requirements. Your employer must use this method during the original hiring cycle. If they miss that window, they may need to restart a full PERM recruitment, adding months to the timeline. Confirm with your department's HR team that they're aware of this deadline before you accept an offer.
How can I find Faculty Position jobs where employers already sponsor green cards?
Use Migrate Mate to search Faculty Position openings filtered by employers with verified PERM and employment-based green card sponsorship history. Focusing your applications on institutions that have already sponsored international faculty reduces the risk of pursuing opportunities where sponsorship is uncertain or where HR teams are unfamiliar with the PERM process.
Can I switch universities after my PERM is approved but before I receive my green card?
Once your I-140 petition is approved and your priority date is current, AC21 portability allows you to change employers to a same or similar role without losing your place in the green card queue, provided your I-485 adjustment of status application has been pending for at least 180 days. For faculty, same or similar generally means a comparable academic or research position. Consult an immigration attorney before making any employer change during this phase.
