The initial appointment will be for one year with the possibility of an extension for one or two additional years. Candidates with expertise in any area of chemistry are encouraged to apply. We seek candidates who have a significant interest in education and are dedicated to becoming an excellent undergraduate teacher. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to a team-taught general chemistry course and its associated laboratory, in addition to teaching in the candidate's area of expertise.
