Assistant Professor of Biology (Cell Biology)

We are seeking a faculty member capable of teaching, mentoring, and conducting research with undergraduate and Master’s students from diverse backgrounds. The successful candidate will be expected to maintain an active, extramurally funded research program that leads to peer-reviewed publications. The faculty member will be expected to serve the university and the community.

We seek a teacher and scholar focusing on cellular processes, which could include cell biology, human physiology, toxicology or other related fields. The candidate must be able to teach an upper division course in an array of classes such as Cell Biology, Immunology or Endocrinology along with other upper division and graduate-level courses (potentially including new courses) in their specialty, as well as lower division and general education (non-major) classes. The successful candidate will receive startup funds and lab space to establish their research program. Preference will be given to applicants with a record of excellence in supporting  students who identify with historically minoritized groups in learning, including using evidence-based pedagogical techniques and mentoring practices.

Review of applications will begin in October 11, 2024
