NC State University, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Location Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Close Date Application review ends Spring 2025 Position Summary The Department of Plant and Microbial Biology at North Carolina State University invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in Plant Evolutionary Biology. This position is a 9-month, tenure-track position with responsibilities divided between research and teaching. We seek an individual who uses innovative approaches to understand molecular mechanisms underlying plant evolution and adaptation Responsibilities: This position is a 9-month, tenure-track position with responsibilities divided between research and teaching. We seek an individual who uses innovative approaches to understand molecular mechanisms underlying plant evolution and adaptation. Areas of emphasis may include but are not limited to comparative biology, speciation, phylogeography, phylogenetics, evolution of form and function, and systematics. Priority will be given to candidates who bridge molecular to organismal understanding of evolution and thus will benefit from/contribute to existing programs in the Department of Plant and Microbial Biology and the N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a productive, extramurally-funded research program that enhances and complements existing programs in the department and college. Initial teaching expectation will be 1-2 courses per year. Teaching will depend on the individual’s areas of expertise, but may include graduate and undergraduate courses in Plant Evolution covering plant evolutionary theory and mechanisms, innovations in form and function, and molecular tools for inference. Candidates will also be expected to mentor graduate and undergraduate students in research. Minimum Qualifications: Candidates must have a PhD degree in plant biology, evolutionary biology or a related discipline, with expertise in plant evolution and a record of peer-reviewed publications and scholarly accomplishments commensurate with experience. Postdoctoral and teaching experience are preferred. Application review will begin January 13, 2025.
