Job description

Are you interested in leveraging your teaching skills at a small, unique, close-knit university where your efforts are contributing to a healthier society? University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis (UHSP) recently expanded undergraduate programs in the College of Arts & Sciences and is seeking a non-tenure-track, academic year, physics faculty member at the rank of Instructor or Assistant Professor to start Fall 2023.

The physics faculty member will contribute by teaching a variety of undergraduate physics courses and labs and developing electives in their areas of interest (80-90% effort). We seek candidates who could also teach lower-level mathematics courses as needed. The faculty member will also provide service to the University by advising students, serving on faculty committees, and optionally serving as a faculty advisor for student organizations (10-20%). Our core values include embracing difference; we seek candidates who are committed to and will contribute to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

UHSP has been training health professionals and health care leaders since 1864 and is ranked number one by Georgetown Universitys Center on Education and the Workforce for return on investment 15+ years after enrollment. The University has a vibrant campus life, more than 30,000 square feet of research space, and is featured in the National Science Foundations Higher Education Research and Development Survey. There are numerous opportunities for collaborative teaching across other UHSP colleges. We invite applications to be part of a diverse and inclusive team of faculty.
To succeed in this role, you will need:

  • A Masters degree (Ph.D. required for Assistant Professor rank) in physics, or a closely related discipline, completed by the date of appointment.
  • Experience teaching college level physics courses (experience can include graduate teaching assistantships). Experience teaching mathematics is a plus.
  • An interest in relating physics to student interests in physiology, exercise science, and biomedical sciences.
  • An interest in developing and teaching physics or astronomy courses that would satisfy general education requirements.
  • A commitment to supporting diversity, equity, and inclusion.
