About Vassar College

 

Vassar is a highly selective, coeducational liberal arts college of about 2400 undergraduates (no graduate students) located in the beautiful and historic Hudson Valley seventy-five miles north of New York City. The city of Poughkeepsie benefits from rich cultural diversity and from convenient commuter rail access to New York City. Vassar faculty are committed teachers/scholars who bring research and creative discovery to life for students in classrooms, labs, and studios and in individually mentored projects. They teach broadly in the curricula of their departments, advise students, and serve on college-wide and departmental committees. The College maintains a generous leave policy, provides strong support for research, and encourages multidisciplinary approaches to teaching.

 

Position Introduction

 

The Department of Chemistry at Vassar College invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Inorganic Chemistry with a preferred specialty in Materials Science beginning Fall 2023.

 

AA Statement

 

Vassar College is an affirmative action and equal opportunity employer with a strong commitment to increasing the diversity of the campus community and the curriculum, and promoting an environment of equality, inclusion, and respect for difference. Candidates who can contribute to this goal through their teaching, research, advising, and other activities are encouraged to identify their strengths and experiences in this area. Individuals from groups whose underrepresentation in the American professoriate has been severe and longstanding are particularly encouraged to apply.

 

Position Description

 

Candidates should have a PhD with post-doctoral experience and a commitment to undergraduate education. The preferred candidate will be able to teach Introductory Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, and associated instrumental analysis techniques. Opportunities also exist to teach in the upper-level Integrated Laboratory, other courses that the successful candidate may develop, and interdisciplinary programs. We seek a candidate who will develop a vigorous undergraduate research program in a field of Inorganic Chemistry complementary to existing departmental expertise. Teaching load in the first year is four courses; after that it is four courses per year plus research or other intensively mentored work with students.

-A letter of application
