As such, in the teaching statement, cover letter, and/or research proposals we ask candidates to express their philosophy of inclusivity and equity in higher education, including past and current activities and contributions, plans for the future, and how these plans integrate with their scholarly work. Candidates should include how they will promote diversity and inclusion at the Department of Chemistry.

A complete application must include a curriculum vitae, a one-page summary of research plans, two or more research proposals, a brief statement of teaching interests, and three letters of recommendation.
