SUNY Plattsburgh is a vibrant, public, comprehensive college, and member of the State University of New York’s (SUNY) comprehensive system of higher education committed to student-centered academic excellence. While the college enrolls more than 5,200 students in 70+ baccalaureate, certificate, and master’s programs, an average class size of 22 students allows the individual attention necessary to ensure that its graduates are educated to succeed in an increasingly complex, multicultural and interdependent world.

About The Position: The School of Arts & Sciences provides excellence in learning opportunities for all students at SUNY Plattsburgh through a core liberal arts education. We train students who can think critically, have mastered their discipline, can communicate effectively and are broadly educated. The Biological Sciences Department offers five majors and three minors, giving students multiple opportunities to thrive in the areas that interest them. The successful candidate will be a broadly trained organismal biologist with specialization and individual interests that could span from local to global scales and across levels of biological organization. The duties of this tenure-track position are expected to include teaching a variety of courses within the department, developing a meaningful research program with undergraduates that leads to peer-reviewed publications and presentations, as well as service to the department, university and community, including the academic advisement of a diverse student body.
