Job Description
Job Summary
The Department of Biology in the College of Science at the University of Texas at Arlington ( UTA ) ( ) invites applications for a Tenure-Track faculty position in Bioinformatics at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor. We seek to expand our strengths in computational and experimental biology to incorporate ground-breaking research in Bioinformatics that leverages modern machine learning and AI approaches. We invite applications from researchers working at the interface of data science and biology with particular interest in those leveraging AI and large-scale datasets to investigate fundamental questions in the life sciences. Priority will be given to candidates whose work uses computational and data-driven approaches to explore complex biological systems or processes by integrating across multiple levels of organization from molecules and gene networks to organisms populations and ecosystems. We are also interested in research that integrates diverse data types such as genomic phenotypic environmental or ecological data to uncover patterns mechanisms and emergent properties underlying biological function health disease and/or ecosystem dynamics. Candidates whose work bridges disciplines and pushes the boundaries of how large-scale data and AI can be used to advance biological understanding are strongly encouraged to apply. Successful candidates will have a doctoral degree in a relevant field and should demonstrate strong promise for acquiring extramural grant funding and potential for producing high quality research and scholarly or creative achievements that advance the field; and show strong promise to develop and use novel biological theoretical and quantitative approaches as well as functional experimental methods to investigate complex biological systems such as the interaction of the environment with an individuals genome and interactions among organisms. New faculty will further contribute to the UTA community through high-quality teaching using evidence-based practices to engage undergraduate and graduate (Masters and Ph.D.) students from various backgrounds and experiences effectively. Start-up funds salaries and teaching loads are highly competitive and successful candidates will have opportunities to apply for generous state funds with which the University and Department has had considerable success. This position is expected to start September 1 2026.
Essential Duties And Responsibilities
The successful applicant will be committed to excellence in research teaching and service and will be expected to teach undergraduate and/or graduate courses build and lead a team of student researchers implement a program of externally funded research that yields top-tier publications and contribute to professional service within UTA and the external community.
Required Qualifications
Minimum requirements for this position include: (1) a Ph.D. or equivalent in one of the disciplines noted above or a related discipline that aligns with a focus on bioinformatics; (2) a strong publication record or potential in the field of expertise; (3) strong research program with existing external funding or potential for funding; and (4) commitment to quality teaching at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
