This search is part of a College-wide, multiyear hiring initiative designed to hire outstanding researchers and teachers who are reflective of our diverse student body, committed to interdisciplinarity, dedicated to the pursuit of external grants, and appreciative of a Jesuit, Catholic education. As a University that is situated in the world-class, multicultural City of Chicago and dedicated to mentoring a diverse student body, many of whom come from underrepresented and underserved populations, we especially encourage applications from candidates from underrepresented groups.
The person hired into this faculty position will be expected to run a productive research laboratory, involve undergraduate and graduate students in our master’s degree programs in their research, and compete for external research funding. This faculty member will also teach both core undergraduate courses (e.g., Genetics or Cell Biology) and upper-level elective courses in their area of expertise.
