Brief Description
Luther College invites applications for a Visiting Assistant Professor of Biology with expertise in ecology. This is a one-year, full-time, non-tenure track position, for the 2024-25 academic year. PhD or ABD and teaching experience required. The successful applicant will demonstrate potential for excellence in college teaching and a commitment to the liberal arts.
Teaching responsibilities include an upper-level ecology course, participation in our team-taught introductory Ecology, Evolution and Biodiversity course, and courses in the applicant’s area of expertise that complement current departmental offerings and needs of the college. Potential teaching areas may include but are not limited to courses for majors or non-majors including specialized subdivisions of ecology (e.g. disease ecology, agricultural ecology, spatial ecology, urban ecology); environmental conservation; organismal courses (e.g. botany, ichthyology, ornithology, parasitology, virology); or applied courses (e.g. epidemiology, GIS, fisheries biology). Full time teaching load is spread over the fall, January, and spring terms.
Luther College is an undergraduate liberal arts college with a population of fifteen-hundred students. Our faculty and students are highly engaged in academics and research, music programs, athletics, social justice, sustainability, and service. Founded in 1861 by Norwegian immigrants, Luther values its heritage, just as it values the diversity of its students, staff, and faculty, who hail from many faith backgrounds and heritages. Coming from 40 states and 62 countries, 13% of our students are domestic students of color and 13% are international students.
With over 700 acres of college-owned natural areas (prairie, oak woodland, Upper Iowa River), this is an ideal setting to teach field biology.
