Two Tenure-Track Assistant Professor Positions in
1) Sustainable Materials and Green Chemistry, and
2) Health Applications of Materials
DEADLINE EXTENDED to Nov. 30, 2015
Click here for a full description of the jobs, and to start your application!
The University of Windsor’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry
invites applications for two tenure-track Assistant Professor positions
as part of its expanding program in Materials Science in the areas of 1)
Sustainable Materials and Green Chemistry, and 2) Health Applications
of Materials commencing July 1, 2016. These positions are subject to
final budgetary approval.
These positions are two of 50 new tenure-track Assistant Professor
appointments that the University of Windsor will make over the next
three years as part of a visionary strategic investment in our students
and faculty. This cohort of 50 new teachers, scholars, researchers, and
creators will demonstrate both disciplinary grasp and interdisciplinary
reach, providing extraordinary leadership in research, teaching, and
learning for a new generation. For more information on the 50 new
appointments, visit us at www.uwindsor.ca/50newprofs/.
The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers comprehensive
undergraduate and graduate programs of study in Chemistry and
biochemistry. Faculty members have active research programs in a variety
of areas, including synthetic inorganic and organic chemistry,
materials science, surface science, solid-state chemistry and biological
chemistry. For more information about the Department of Chemistry and
Biochemistry, visit our website at www.uwindsor.ca/chemistry.
Essential Qualifications
1) Sustainable Materials and Green Chemistry
The successful applicant will have a Ph.D. in Chemistry, supported
by postdoctoral experience, with a strong track record of publications
in organic/materials related research and a strong commitment to
excellence in teaching. The applicant will be expected to teach courses
in organic and organic materials chemistry at the undergraduate and
graduate levels. The successful candidate will be expected to lead an
active research group in organic materials chemistry with a focus on
research relating to, but not exclusively limited to, sustainable
materials, environmentally benign materials and/or materials processing
for a greener environment. The applicant is expected to develop a
vibrant research program supported by external funding and will have
opportunities for collaborations with materials researchers in Science
and Engineering.
2) Health Applications of Materials
The successful applicant will have a Ph.D. in Chemistry or
Biochemistry, supported by postdoctoral experience, with a strong track
record of publications in the fields of (Bio) materials and Health
Science or related research and a strong commitment to excellence in
teaching. The applicant will be expected to teach courses in chemistry
and/or biochemistry at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The
successful candidate will be expected to lead an active research group
in the development and/or application of (bio) materials to the field of
Health Science. The applicant is expected to develop a vibrant research
program supported by external funding and will have opportunities for
collaborations with materials researchers in Science and Engineering.

and Bioorganic Chemistry) from November 9-11, 2012. The conference
will be held on the campus of the University of Windsor.
The
plenary speakers include Dr.
Mukund Sibi (North Dakota State University), Dr. Jeff Aube
(University of Kansas), and Dr. Carl Decicco
(Bristol-Myers Squibb).
We invite both oral and poster
presentations for the conference; normally the vast majority of
