The Biology Department at The College of Wooster invites applications for a visiting position in Animal Behavior/Physiology at the level of Assistant Professor, beginning in August 2020.

We are especially interested in hiring faculty who can contribute to the intellectual vibrancy and diversity of the academic community through their teaching, research, and service.

The successful candidate will teach the equivalent of 6 courses, which may include introductory and advanced courses in general biology, organismal and evolutionary biology and animal behavior/physiology. In addition, they will advise independent thesis projects in animal behavior/physiology as part of the College’s Independent Study program, and may participate in teaching courses for non-majors.

Applicants should submit a letter of application; curriculum vitae; unofficial graduate transcripts; a teaching philosophy statement; a statement of research interests; a statement detailing how the applicant has engaged and/or expects to engage with issues of diversity and inclusion in the classroom and the curriculum, as well as on campus and in the broader community; and three reference letters through Interfolio.
