Description

Day-to-day responsabilities

Through your undergraduate and graduate-level teaching, and your research activities, you will contribute to the faculty’s pursuit of excellence. Furthermore, you will promote your discipline and actively participate in the daily activities of a renowned institution. As such, you will: 

Teach undergraduate and graduate classes and develop pedagogical initiatives for our new undergraduate program, with a focus on environmental chemistry; 
Develop a high-level research program in environmental chemistry while extending the frontiers of the discipline. The department strongly encourages applicants who will develop a research theme of current interest (e.g. environmental big data, atmospheric chemistry, urban contamination, emerging contaminants of interest) with a high potential impact. Candidates with a theme related to artificial intelligence or environmental big data could also apply for a position as an IVADO Professor (consortium for research, training and knowledge mobilization in artificial intelligence), which offers enhanced start-up conditions;
Supervise graduate students;
Contribute to committees and to the development of the Department, the faculty, and the institution through participation in scientific, administrative and social activities;
Participate in activities to promote the discipline (publications, conferences, etc.), including outreach.

Requirements

Hold a Ph.D. in environmental chemistry or a related discipline;
Have post-doctoral or equivalent research experience;
Have an excellent publication record in the field;
Demonstrate the ability to provide high-quality university teaching in environmental chemistry at all levels;
Propose a world-class research program in environmental chemistry with the potential to develop internal, national and international collaborations;
Demonstrate the potential to supervise graduate students;
Adequate proficiency in French or a strong commitment to mastering the proficiency level required after hiring with the help of UdeM’s support program for learning French. Please see Université de Montréal’s Language Policy.
