We are searching this year for a plant scientist at Central Washington
University. As you'll see in the attached position description we are most
interested in a plant physiologist. Other botanists on staff include a
plant molecular systematist, a plant ecologist, a plant cell biologist and
a mycologist. Please pass along the job announcement to any interested
students, colleagues, etc.

P.S. The attachment is a Word document. In case you have trouble
opening it,
I'll paste the key elements here:
Full-time (9 month academic appointment), tenure-track position in
the area of plant sciences with a focus in plant physiology.
The candidate should be prepared to teach botany classes and
participate in general biology offerings for majors and non-majors.
Experience in Applied Plant Science would be a bonus. We are looking
for a
candidate that has the potential to forge links between our department's
strengths in the areas of Ecology and/or Molecular Biology. A normal
teaching load is two courses with lab each quarter (an average of 12
contact hours). Research involving undergraduate or masters students is
expected; continued scholarly activity is required, as are advising and
other service activities.
Screening of applications for the position will begin on January
15, 2002 and continue until a candidate is selected. A complete
application consists of: a Letter of Application, a statement addressing
teaching and research philosophies and interests, a curriculum vita,
photocopies of all academic transcripts, and names (including address,
phone, fax, and e-mail) of 3 references (at least one of whom can comment
on teaching ability). Direct inquiries and applications to:
