  • Tenure Track Faculty in Genomics

    University of Connecticut
    Plant Ecological or Evolutionary Genomics
    The Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Connecticut seeks applicants for a 9-month tenure-track position to begin in August 2012. Although targeted at the Assistant Professor rank, an appointment at a higher rank may be possible for a candidate who exceptionally enhances the diversity elements of our academic mission.
    We seek a creative individual employing genomic approaches to address key questions in the ecology and evolutionary biology of plants. Research on non-model organisms is preferred but appropriate research foci involving model organisms will also be considered. Experience in bioinformatic and statistical analyses is desirable.
    The successful applicant will have a Ph.D., preferably with postdoctoral experience. They will be expected to supervise an independent research program that will attract extramural funding, teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and provide research training for graduate and undergraduate students. Teaching duties are expected to include participation, on a rotating basis, in a) our introductory biology curriculum, b) an upper-level botany, evolution, or ecology course, and c) a graduate course in the candidate’s specialty. Preferred qualifications include the ability to contribute to the diversity and excellence of the learning experience and academic community through research, teaching or service.
    Submit a curriculum vitae (with links to your top 3 publications), a summary of research accomplishments and future research objectives, a brief description of teaching experience and philosophy to: Husky Hire (http://jobs.uconn.edu).
    Please have letters from three referees sent to: ([email protected]). Review of applications will begin January 6, 2012. Questions regarding this position may be addressed to [email protected]
    Evaluation of applicants will be made by assessment of: 1) graduate and post-doctoral experience; 2) research accomplishments, productivity and extramural funding; 3) statements of teaching and research objectives; 4) professional references; and 5) expertise in ecological or evolutionary genomics.
    Information about the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology can be found at http://hydrodictyon.eeb.uconn.edu/eebwww/
    The University of Connecticut houses state of the art genomics instrumentation and computational facilities.

    The University of Connecticut encourages applications from under-represented groups, including minorities, women, and people with disabilities.
