TWO TENURE-TRACK
BIOLOGY POSITIONS
The Biology Department at Bucknell University invites applications for two
entry-level tenure-track Assistant Professor positions to begin August
2008. The successful candidates will teach introductory courses for majors
or non-majors and upper-level courses in their area of specialty. The
successful candidate is expected to establish a research program that
involves talented undergraduates and attracts extramural funding. Ph.D. or
ABD, evidence of teaching effectiveness, and a strong research record are
required. Postdoctoral experience is preferred.
We are seeking a broadly trained ORGANISMAL, ECOLOGICAL, or EVOLUTIONARY
BIOLOGIST. We especially welcome applicants who can contribute to the
interdisciplinary programs of Neuroscience, Animal Behavior, or
Environmental Studies, but all research areas will be considered.
We are also seeking a broadly trained CELL or MOLECULAR
BIOLOGIST. Applications from candidates with expertise in any cell or
molecular biology discipline will be considered; areas of particular
interest that would complement existing strengths in the department are
neurobiology, immunology, or signal transduction.
Bucknell University is a premier liberal arts university with a
long-standing tradition of excellence in the sciences. Start-up funds and
internal funding for research are available. Institutional support for
faculty research includes shared facilities for tissue culture, confocal
and scanning electron microscopy. Faculty members typically teach one
course and two laboratories, or the equivalent, each semester.
To apply, please refer to website: http://www.bucknell.edu/jobs. Review of
applications will begin on October 15. The search will remain open until
the position is filled.
Bucknell University values a diverse college community and is committed to
excellence through diversity in its faculty, staff and students. An Equal
Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer, Bucknell University especially
welcomes applications from women and minority candidates.
