Now Hiring!
We are seeking a Post-Doctoral Synthetic Chemist. The ideal candidate would have a strong background in asymmetric synthesis, be proficient in laboratory techniques (NMR, chiral GC and HPLC), possess strong written and oral communication skills, and be willing to teach basic synthetic skills to undergraduate and new graduate students.
Graduate Students
The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry has graduate programs for students interested in either the Ph.D. or M.S. degrees, and more details can be found on the Department’s webpage. If you are accepted into the program, then during your first semester, you are required to interview several professors in search for a good fit, both for the professor’s needs and the student’s interest. To be completely clear, I cannot accept you into my research laboratory until after you begin your first semester in the program. Typically, I accept one to three students per year, depending on resources.
Undergraduate Students
A few undergraduates join my group each year. In general, preference is given to students early in their careers, particularly in their sophomore or junior year. Preference is also given to those who can make a long term commitment to research, especially those that can conduct research over the summers. In some circumstances (and after showing significant progress and potential) I will work with the undergraduate to find modest research support via grants; these are competitive programs for the most exceptional students. If you are interested in joining my group, you should fill out an application in the office of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. Please make sure to turn this in before the deadline indicated on the website.
