Job Description:
The Department of Chemistry within the College of Arts and Sciences at the University at Albany invites applications for a full-time, tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor (academic year). The candidate will be an experimental chemist whose research addresses advanced materials design and engineering, semiconductor-related chemistry, sustainable/green chemistry, or other areas of applied chemical science. They will establish an externally funded research program and contribute to undergraduate and graduate education, with a particular emphasis on hands-on undergraduate research, workforce preparation, and industrial collaboration. This position will enable the department to launch an applied MS program in "Industry Chemistry" designed to attract current and future employees from regional industry partners.
In addition to teaching Chemistry courses and courses in their area of expertise, the candidate will lead departmental efforts to incorporate green and sustainable chemistry principles across the Chemistry curriculum and laboratory programs, particularly to help "greenify" our gen-chem for nursing students, to reduce student exposure to hazardous substances and increase student success.
The Department of Chemistry offers undergraduate and graduate programs that provide students with a strong foundation in the chemical sciences and opportunities for advanced research. The department's faculty pursue research across a broad range of areas in chemistry and related fields, fostering an interdisciplinary and collaborative research environment.
Additionally, the Department of Chemistry and the College of Arts and Sciences offer a collaborative and supportive environment for faculty and students. This position emphasizes candidates who pursue excellence in research, demonstrate a commitment to teaching undergraduate and graduate courses, and contribute to the department's mission of fostering student success and scientific discovery.
