Sustainability Studies and General Education programs through these course
offerings. Candidates must demonstrate experience with or a commitment to
engaging undergraduate students in research, and they should also reveal
their dedication to effective science communication that will appeal to

educational needs of a culturally diverse population and be committed to
teaching, mentoring, and advising diverse, underrepresented students,
including students of color, and non-traditional students.

The Department of BMBES at RWU is a vibrant, inclusive community of 17
scientists, serving as instructors, scholars, and advisors with
demonstrated excellence in student-centered teaching, research, and
service. As a department we value an environment for learning that includes
a broad-based academic program; opportunities and support for undergraduate
