DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY, FACULTY OF SCIENCE

Assistant Professor / Associate Professor / Full Professor (PR0327/22-23)

The Department of Biology at Hong Kong Baptist University is searching for two tenure-track faculty positions at the Assistant, Associate or Professor level.  While candidates with research interests in any area of biology will be considered, those with research programmes in the following areas are especially encouraged to apply: molecular biochemistry or protein biochemistry, gene regulation (including RNA biology, translational control, and epigenetic regulation), microbial molecular biology, or plant molecular biology.

New faculty are expected to contribute to the research environment of the department as well as undergraduate/graduate educational programmes.  Preference will be given to candidates that show a track record of outstanding research publications and dedication to excellence in teaching and mentoring.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. or equivalent in any related discipline and relevant postdoctoral experience.  The openings are on tenure-track with initial appointment on a three-year fixed-term contract.  Re-appointments thereafter will be subject to mutual agreement.  Tenured appointments are expected to be attained within six years.

Rank and salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Application Procedure:
Applicants are invited to submit their applications at the HKBU e-Recruitment System (jobs.hkbu.edu.hk) with (1) cover letter, (2) a full curriculum vitae, (3) a research statement (< 3 pages) covering both past accomplishments and future plans, (4) a statement on teaching and mentoring students (1-2 pages) and (5) three to four key publications.  They should also request two referees to send in confidential letters of reference, with PR number (stated above) quoted on the letters, to the Human Resources Office (Email: recruit@hkbu.edu.hk) directly.  Those who are not invited for interview four months after the submission date may consider their applications unsuccessful.  All application materials including publication samples, scholarly/creative works will be disposed of after completion of the recruitment exercise.  Details of the University’s Personal Information Collection Statement can be found at http://hro.hkbu.edu.hk/pics.  

The University reserves the right not to make appointments for the posts advertised, and the appointments will be made according to the terms and conditions applicable at the time of offers.
