What are the responsibilities and job description for the Teaching Assistant Professor of Chemistry position at The George Washington University Hospital?
The Department of Chemistry at the George Washington University invites applications for a full-time non-tenure accruing special service Teaching Assistant Professor beginning in July 2025, or earlier pending approvals. The initial appointment will be for three years and may be renewed pending satisfactory performance.
This is a 12-month, calendar year appointment that is designed to strengthen our year-round commitment to undergraduate organic chemistry education. Thus, the position will involve supervision of the instructional Organic Chemistry Labs and teaching one lecture course per term, including summer. In addition, the successful candidate will be expected to update the lab curriculum (over time) reflecting the department’s strength in environmental sustainability, as well as manage laboratory teaching assistants and undergraduate learning assistants who provide course support to students.
GW Chemistry is located in the Science and Engineering Hall, our unique facility that houses bright and expansive lab spaces, a state-of-the-art imaging suite, and a Class 100 nanofabrication/cleanroom facility. The imaging instrumentation includes new SEM, TEM, FIB-SEM and Confocal Microscopes. In addition, two high performance computing clusters are available to Chemistry faculty, and several laboratories within Chemistry and the School of Engineering and Applied Science have established, state-of-the art laser spectroscopy facilities available for collaborative use. Our department offers B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees, and our dynamic faculty have collaborative programs on campus with the GW Medical Center, the Katzen Cancer Research Center, and the GW Institute for Neuroscience.
Our strategic and central location in Washington, DC facilitates engagement with prestigious research laboratories such as the National Institutes of Health, Naval Research Laboratory, Children’s National Medical Center, National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Food and Drug Administration, the DC Center for AIDS Research and the Smithsonian Institution.
