Details concerning the biochemistry program may be found at: http://ugradcalendar.uwaterloo.ca/page/SCI-Honours-Biochemistry1.
While the appointment will be made initially for a three-year term, this position fills an important role in the program; it is anticipated that an appointee with outstanding performance will be considered for on-going employment as a Continuing Lecturer during a second three-year term.
Applicants should have outstanding training and demonstrated excellence in biochemistry. A doctoral degree in biochemistry or a closely related discipline is required; postdoctoral experience is desired. They should have established an outstanding biochemistry teaching record or be able to provide evidence of potential for high-quality teaching in biochemistry at all levels within the undergraduate curriculum.

The University of Waterloo is located in the attractive and vibrant two-university community of Kitchener-Waterloo (population 330,000) in southwestern Ontario, about 100 km west of Toronto. The Faculty of Science has an excellent reputation for teaching biochemistry, chemistry and biology at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and it offers outstanding research and teaching environments, including new teaching facilities in the Science Teaching Complex, opened in 2016.
The University of Waterloo is also home to the world’s largest co-operative education program, where students gain work experience during work terms as part of their degree program. This is an attractive option for students entering the biochemistry program.
