We seek candidates with research and teaching specialties that complement those existing within the department. SDSU is located in San Diego with established and growing ties to the local biotech hub, and has a campus in nearby Imperial Valley with affiliations to the burgeoning lithium energy sector. We welcome all candidates who will foster research collaborations on campus, and particularly encourage applicants who will prepare students for careers in these local industries.

A Ph.D. degree and postdoctoral experience in chemistry or a related field are required.

Please indicate in a separate diversity statement how you meet at least three (3) of these criteria. Additional guidance on our BIE program for applicants is here.
