Stevenson University is seeking adjunct faculty to teach two courses in our new Environmental Science curriculum for the upcoming fall semester:
ENV 285 Geographic Information Systems CHEM 203L Environmental Chemistry Laboratory (course descriptions below) Stevenson is a private, liberal arts institution with a career focus located just NW of Baltimore, MD. Scheduling for these courses may be flexible depending on availability of the adjunct faculty. Any questions regarding the positions should be directed to Merrie Durmowicz, Chair of Biological Sciences: mdurmow...@stevenson.edu<mailto:mdurmow...@stevenson.edu>, 443-334-2414. To apply, go to: http://www.stevenson.edu/human-resources/employment-opportunities/ and submit application for the Adjunct Faculty in Biology position, then please contact Dr. Durmowicz so that we can quickly start the interview process, etc. If you know of anyone else in the Baltimore-DC area that may be interested, please pass along. ENV 285 Geographic Information Systems 3 credits Introduces the concepts and theories behind Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with emphasis on the nature of spatial data and geographic information, geographic data input, manipulation, and storage, simple spatial analysis and modeling techniques, and cartographic layout. Utilizes GIS to visualize, analyze, and interpret spatial data to solve problems. CHEM 203L Environmental Chemistry Laboratory 1 credit (3 contact hours) Introduces the techniques and instruments used to study chemical compounds in the environment. An emphasis will be on methodologies relevant to today's environmental scientist. Topics include methods for determining oxygen demand in natural and wastewaters, inorganic and organic profiles of soil and sediments, trace metals in water and soil, levels of environmental hydrocarbons, and sampling for air particulates.
