Job Description:
TEACHING EXPECTATIONS: The successful applicant will be able to teach introductory computer science classes (which include topics such as software engineering, computer architecture, database systems, and programming languages), an upper level class in computational biology related to the candidate’s expertise, have a working knowledge of programming and databases, and use these tools to solve biologically-oriented problems and questions.
RESEARCH EXPECTATIONS: While teaching is a major component of the position, productive research involving undergraduates is expected and is a long-standing tradition in the university.

The university is situated in an area experiencing rapid growth in biomedical, biotech, agricultural, and environmental research, offering collaboration opportunities in various research areas (for more information go to http://www.augie.edu/academics/biology). The ability to work with other faculty within Augustana, BioSNTR, and regional organizations and businesses to expand computational curricular and research opportunities will be essential in this position.
SALARY: Salary is competitive and dependent upon qualifications; excellent fringe benefits are included. A competitive research startup via BioSNTR funding will be provided, in addition to access to a wide variety of newly acquired departmental research equipment.
CLOSING DATE: Review of applications will begin November 13, 2015 and continue until the position has been filled. Augustana University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action/Title IX Employer.
