Position SummaryMichigan State University (MSU) and MSU's Lyman Briggs College (LBC) actively promote a dynamic working and learning environment in which qualified individuals of differing perspectives and cultural backgrounds pursue academic goals with mutual respect and shared inquiry.LBC invites applications for a teaching-focused faculty position to join the college's Chemistry Group starting August of 2024. Candidates must be committed to high-quality and inclusive undergraduate teaching and must have a master's (minimum) or doctoral (desired) degree in chemistry, chemistry education, or closely related field by the start of employment. The successful candidate will be committed to advancing excellence in the teaching of introductory chemistry courses and will join the college's ongoing efforts to improve undergraduate STEM education, particularly with respect to advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEI&B). A scholarly approach to teaching students and mentoring student employees is essential.This position offers exciting opportunities for individuals interested in teaching in a liberal-arts style residential college embedded within a large "BigTen" research-intensive university. Founded in 1967, Lyman Briggs College (LBC) is an interdisciplinary undergraduate residential college within MSU that aims to transform what it means to be a scientist ). There are approximately 2,000 LBC students engaging in a curriculum that integrates the natural sciences and mathematics with the human, social, and global dimensions of the sciences. The LBC student body is diverse, with 66% identifying as women and 31% identifying as students of an/multiple underrepresented racial/ethnic group. Additionally, 32% of LBC students are members of the MSU Honors College and 12% are first generation students. Faculty work closely with students in small classes (e.g., largest chemistry lecture is <100 students), and the college is known as a place for interdisciplinary scholarship, teaching and learning, and engagement. The college boasts a dynamic community of students, staff, and faculty who make LBC an exceptional place to learn and work. The successful candidate will be an Academic Specialist in the Continuing Appointment System. LBC Academic Specialists are long-term, teaching-focused faculty who are outstanding instructors in the classroom, support curriculum improvement, and who support and mentor undergraduates. Academic Specialists also contribute professional service to the college and university, including membership on committees, have full voting rights in the college, are supported in their professional development, and follow a career progression (i.e., reappointment, reappointment with Continuing Status, promotion to Senior Academic Specialist). The successful candidate will start with a three-year probationary appointment that has the potential, after successful reappointment, to become a long-term position in the Academic Specialist Continuing Appointment System (for details see the MSU Academic Specialist Handbook at ). Reappointment and continuing appointment decisions are based on performance reviews that include peer and student teaching evaluations. The successful candidate will teach the equivalent of five or six courses each academic year within the LBC Chemistry Group. The Chemistry Group offers lecture and lab courses of general chemistry and a lecture course of organic chemistry. Larger courses are taught with the support of undergraduate learning assistants in both the lecture and laboratory setting. The successful candidate will primarily teach general chemistry lecture and lab courses and co-ordinate lab preparation for introductory chemistry lab courses, as well as have an opportunity to periodically teach an introduction to quantitative reasoning, organic chemistry, or an interdisciplinary, writing-intensive, senior seminar class. The successful candidate will also have the opportunity to work on other teaching and learning projects as needs and interests arise. For example, they have the opportunity to mentor graduate students on teaching and learning projects or on training grants.Equal Employment Opportunity Statement
