Applicants must possess their PhD. at the time of submission; candidates with publications, postdoctoral experience and a demonstrated commitment to undergraduate education will be given preference. If the successful candidate so desires, she/he will have access to extensive instrumentation and opportunities to pursue a research program that includes participation by undergraduates. Over the course of an academic year, our faculty typically teach undergraduates at three levels: (1) introductory courses and labs for majors, (2) upper-level major courses and labs, and (3) any of several one-semester non-majors courses (arts, education, or engineering students). Applicants with a PhD in an appropriate field should submit a CV, a one-page statement of teaching philosophy, a one-page statement of research interests and contact information of three individuals with knowledge of the quality of their teaching and/or research who will be willing to provide letters of recommendation on the applicants behalf upon request as a single PDF document. Only electronic application will be considered. Review of applicants will begin on or about January 10, 2020 and will continue until the position is filled.

We expect our faculty, administration, and staff to be knowledgeable about our mission and to make a positive contribution to the mission. Applicants from historically under-represented segments of the population are encouraged to apply, as well as those attracted to a college with a Catholic identity. We are committed to a diverse campus community. AA/EO |
