Description

The Division of Science at NYU Abu Dhabi invites applications for faculty positions within its Chemistry Program. We particularly welcome applications from women as well as members of underrepresented groups. Multidisciplinary research and exceptional teaching in a highly diverse and inclusive campus community are hallmarks of the University’s mission.

NYUAD values diversity, inclusion, belonging, and equity; such principles are fundamental to the university's commitment to excellence. Our faculty are the engines that sustain our inclusive environment; NYUAD students come from more than 115 countries, with no single one nationality exceeding more than 15 percent of the total student population. Likewise, our faculty are highly diverse and community-minded: our modern campus is home to over 320 faculty who represent more than 45 different nationalities, all of whom bring a global perspective to their classrooms and research projects. Research is advanced by over 400 highly qualified research staff, who are likewise drawn from all over the world. 

Applicants are invited to apply for an open-rank, tenure-track/tenured position in all areas of chemistry, with a preference to candidates with a research focus on Solid-State NMR Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP), and particularly the development of new DNP methods and their application to materials for biochemical or environmental research. Applicants who hold a PhD in chemistry or a chemistry-related discipline (preference will be given to candidates with a PhD in analytical, physical and inorganic chemistry) should demonstrate an outstanding track record for their career stage in both teaching and research. This includes publications in leading peer-reviewed journals, and participation in conferences. The candidates should have demonstrated potential to lead independent research projects, be open to develop collaboration networks with other faculty and internationally, and propose research projects that are likely to secure extramural research funding.

Faculty in the Program in Chemistry contribute to the multidisciplinary research at NYU Abu Dhabi that is a signature of the institution’s liberal arts concept. Candidates are expected to be outstanding scholars with exceptional productivity in their fields, and to act as inspirational teachers and mentors to undergraduate and graduate students. Candidates with ability to teach inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, instrumental methods, bioanalytical chemistry, and NMR spectroscopy at an undergraduate and graduate level will be carefully considered.

Successful candidates will receive a generous startup package as well as renewable research funding to hire research assistants and postdocs, and will also have access to internal funding. Faculty have access to Core Technology Platforms (CTP) that house state-of-the-art instruments and qualified specialists in advanced manufacturing and electronics, analytical and materials characterization, high-throughput screening, microscopy, micro-fabrication, molecular and cell biology, photonics and spectroscopy, and others. The Center for Research Computing (CRC) provides high-performance computing facilities and support for application hosting, data management and storage, big data, artificial intelligence (AI), file transfer, and other activities through the Linux cluster “Dalma” comprising around 12,000 computing cores and a peak performance of 385 TFLOPS.
