Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech, based in
Shenzhen/China) has just celebrated the establishment of the School
of Life Science. There will be a major expansion in the School
based on the existing Department of Biology. The School plans to
recruit ~80 tenure-track faculty members at all ranks in the coming
years. We are searching for outstanding scientists in all major
research areas of modern life sciences as well as those with
expertise in interdisciplinary research directions including but
not limited to chemical biology, quantitative biology, and systems
biology. The School strives to become a leading life science
research institute in the nation and a major intellectual engine
for the health science and biotechnology industry in Shenzhen and
the Greater Bay Area. Successful candidates are expected to
establish an independent and internationally recognized research
program and to contribute to the missions of the School in
undergraduate and graduate education.
The School currently has 38 faculty members with different nationalities working in diverse research areas (https://bio.sustech.edu.cn/). The University has a vibrant research environment and is aggressively enhancing its research capacity via major expansions in multiple directions. With its short history of ~10 years, SUSTech is becoming to be one of the top universities in China and in the Asia-Pacific region. New faculty members will be provided with internationally competitive renumeration and start-up funding. Faculty members are also supported by sizable long-term recurrent budget. Fringe benefits including high-end medical insurance with international coverage and housing will be provided.
Application Procedure
Application materials including a cover letter, curriculum vitae, research proposal (maximum 3 pages), teaching statement (maximum 1 page), and contact information of three referees should be sent to the Chair of the School of Life Sciences Search and Appointments Committee (lifs_hr@sustech.edu.cn). This is a continuing search for the coming years until all positions are filled. Review of applications will start immediately.
