Tenure or Tenure-Track Professor of Chemistry
The Department of Chemistry at Virginia Tech invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions at the assistant, associate, and full professor levels. We seek outstanding candidates in all areas of chemistry, broadly defined, who will establish innovative, externally funded research programs and contribute to excellence in undergraduate and graduate education.
Virginia Tech Chemistry is a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary department with strengths spanning the molecular sciences. We welcome applicants whose research complements or expands our areas of emphasis, including:
Energy and Sustainability
Drug Discovery and Chemical Biology
Materials for Medicine and Human Health
Theory, Modeling, and Computational Chemistry
As a comprehensive land-grant university, Virginia Tech is guided by its motto, Ut Prosim ("That I May Serve"). We seek faculty who are excited to pursue research, education, and engagement that advance the chemical sciences while making a meaningful impact on society. This spirit of service, combined with a deeply collaborative academic culture, defines our community and our approach to discovery.
Faculty benefit from strong institutional investments in research through world-class centers and institutes across Virginia Tech. In particular, the Department of Chemistry has a prominent leadership role in the Virginia Tech Center for Drug Discovery and the Macromolecules Innovation Institute, which serve as major hubs for interdisciplinary research in drug discovery, biotechnology, advanced materials, polymer science, and human health. These organizations, together with the Fralin Life Sciences Institute, the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute, and the Institute for Critical Technology and Applied Science, provide access to state-of-the-art facilities, shared instrumentation, and collaborative networks that accelerate discovery from fundamental science to translational impact.
Applicants must have earned a Ph.D. in chemistry or a closely related field by the appointment start date and demonstrate the potential to develop a nationally recognized research program, together with a strong commitment to excellence in teaching and mentoring. Successful candidates will contribute to the department's educational mission through teaching and curriculum development at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, including foundational courses, such as general chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and analytical chemistry, as well as undergraduate and graduate courses aligned with their expertise and departmental needs.
