The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Siena College invites applications for a one-year visiting assistant professor position for the 2023-24 academic year.
The successful candidate will teach 24 contact hours during the academic year with primary teaching responsibilities in the general chemistry lecture and laboratory courses.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. in chemistry or a closely related field and a commitment to excellence in teaching in a liberal arts environment. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply, though we particularly encourage applications from candidates with experience teaching small undergraduate courses with inclusive pedagogies.

The department is committed to fostering a culture of collegiality, cooperation, and collaboration between department members, support staff, and the students we serve. As a PUI, we are dedicated to meeting our diverse students where they are, and providing them pathways for success in STEM fields.
A background screening is required.
Additional Information:
Siena College is committed to attracting, supporting, and retaining a diverse body of faculty, staff, and administrators. We actively encourage applications from women, minorities, persons with disabilities, veterans, and others from underrepresented groups who may make a positive contribution to the diversification of ideas and perspectives.

Only specialty occupations will qualify for H-1B status under applicable federal law.
