Department of Chemistry: Assistant or Associate Professor of Chemistry

The Department of Chemistry at Washington University in St. Louis invites applications for a full-time, tenure-track faculty appointment at the rank of assistant professor or associate professor. We invite applicants in all areas of chemistry, broadly defined (e.g., analytical chemistry, biochemistry, chemical biology, inorganic chemistry, nuclear chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, radiochemistry, theoretical chemistry, etc.). Candidates with interdisciplinary research interests are welcomed. The duties of the position include conducting research, publishing in peer-reviewed journals, obtaining extramural research support, teaching courses, advising students, performing assigned committee work, and participating in university service. The development and maintenance of an outstanding research program is expected. The Department of Chemistry highly values the ability to work with diverse students and colleagues and contribute to building an inclusive environment.

A Ph.D. in chemistry or a closely related field is required at the time of appointment. Candidates for the rank of associate professor should have an outstanding academic record of research, publication, teaching, and service commensurate with tenure at that rank.

Applications will only be accepted through Interfolio and should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, one or more research proposals, and a diversity statement. Applicants should also arrange for three letters of reference to be uploaded to Interfolio. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until October 1, 2024.
