Areas of Interest (No Minimum Level Required)
The Department of Biology at Appalachian State University is excited to announce a cluster hiring to enhance our research and teaching in the Integrative Biology concentration. We invite applications for two tenure-track positions at the rank of Assistant Professor to begin in Fall 2027.
We seek applicants who take an integrative approach to investigating interactions between organisms and their changing environments in the following areas:
Research that employs integrative techniques to address evolutionary or ecological questions related to host-pathogen/symbiont interactions, disease ecology, quantifying the impact of climate change on species interactions, or quantifying differing responses to change across organismal lineages. We intend to hire one applicant who addresses one or more of these questions in plants and one in animals. We are particularly interested in candidates who complement the current departmental strengths. Teaching responsibilities could include: Evolution, Ecology, Global Change Ecology, Plant Physiology, and rotate into the first-year biology sequence. The successful candidates will have the opportunity to develop integrative courses in their area of specialty.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Teaching responsibilities will include required and elective courses in the candidate's area of expertise, and participation in the Introductory Biology sequence for majors.
The successful candidates are expected to develop a research program that is competitive for external funding and involves undergraduate and master's students.
