Additional duties include advising and mentoring students, as well as participating in faculty governance at the departmental and university level. With 3,000 full-time undergraduate students and Ph.D. programs in 5 science departments, Wesleyan is a highly selective liberal arts college that values both scholarship and teaching, has a strong, diverse undergraduate student body, and offers a generous sabbatical program and competitive salaries and benefits.

A complete application includes the following materials, with each numbered item combined into a single document: (1) a cover letter, (2) curriculum vitae, including publications, (3) a statement of research plans, and (4) a statement of teaching interests, with course syllabi and teaching evaluations (if available).
