Biology (Physiology) Tenure Track Faculty

Company: The Evergreen State College

Job Location:

Category: Biology

Type: Full-Time

The Evergreen State College seeks a regular* faculty colleague to teach biological science in a wide range of interdisciplinary courses and programs. Candidates must demonstrate a strong commitment to undergraduate teaching at all levels, including teaching in the established biological sciences and health sciences curriculum. The successful candidate must be able to teach physiology at the organismal level and beyond to cellular and molecular levels. Candidates should able to teach in an additional specialty area(s) related to human health (for example: genetics, immunology, toxicology, cell biology, medical microbiology, endocrinology).

Candidates must have teaching expertise in a degree-granting program at the undergraduate program level, including lecture preparation and delivery, curriculum development, and course coordination. Additionally, candidates must possess a demonstrated commitment to excellent pedagogical inquiry and a demonstrated interest in teaching-related scholarly activities.

Candidates must have a strong commitment to supporting undergraduate research projects. The ability to support research projects related to human health is particularly desirable. This position offers the possibility of collaborations with other biologists and colleagues in the sciences as well as in the arts, humanities, and social sciences.

Evergreen organizes its curriculum through interdisciplinary studies (rather than through departments and courses), so the ideal candidate would show the potential for working across disciplines with faculty colleagues. In addition to teaching, faculty are expected to advise and mentor students and participate in Evergreen’s system of shared governance.

*Regular is equivalent to tenure-track at other colleges. A complete description of the continuing contact and conversion process can be found in the Collective Bargaining Agreement, article 11.
