The Department of Natural Sciences (DNS) at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) seeks applications for a tenure-track
assistant professor of biology in the area of microbial ecology. DNS houses the biology, chemistry, biochemistry, and environmental science
undergraduate programs and graduate programs in Chemistry, Marine-Estuarine and Environmental Sciences (MEES), and Toxicology. We seek
candidates whose expertise may bridge these programs and who demonstrate experience in areas such as microbial mediation of soil
biogeochemistry, plant symbioses, soil health, carbon sequestration, and processing of chemicals of emerging concern. Candidates working on
microbial community structure and community-environment interactions in native or agricultural ecosystems are encouraged to apply.
Candidates should have the capacity to teach a diverse student population and prepare students broadly for future careers in academia,
industry, and government. Teaching responsibilities include introductory undergraduate biology courses, soil ecology, biogeochemistry,
and/or courses in the candidate’s area of interest and expertise. Teaching in the graduate MEES and/or Toxicology programs is also
expected.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in biology, natural resources, soil science, environmental science, or related
field, accomplishment in publishing, and experience teaching or mentoring undergraduates. Candidates will develop an extramurally funded
research program, mentor undergraduate students through their capstone research experiences, train graduate students in the MEES and
Toxicology graduate programs, and contribute to departmental and program self-governance.

letter; (2) a curriculum vitae including publication list; (3) a statement of teaching philosophy, approach, and experience; (4) a statement
that describes the applicant’s prior and current research and their vision and plans for future research; (5) a statement that
