The main campus is in Reno, Nevada, a burgeoning global technology hub with a vibrant midtown and downtown. Found where the high desert of the Great Basin meets the High Sierra and Lake Tahoe, the beautiful, 290-acre main campus is also a Nevada State Arboretum. The University’s physical infrastructure is expanding with ongoing construction of the newly named John Tullock Business Building, set to open in fall 2025. Groundbreaking is also planned for a new State Public Health Laboratory Building on campus, alongside the recent acquisition of 16 parcels near campus, known as “University Village,” to provide affordable housing for graduate students and early career faculty. Collaborating with world-renowned organizations, the University fosters innovation through initiatives such as the Digital Wolf Pack partnership with Apple, which ensures equitable access to technology for students, providing new incoming freshman or transfer students with an iPad Air and accessories. Google’s TechWise initiate is an 18-month program that fully supports undergraduate students in becoming entry-level software engineers by graduation. In 2023, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) announced that Nevada – led by the University of Nevada, Reno – was named one of the inaugural 31 Regional Technology and Innovation Hubs (TechHubs). Nevada was selected from a competitive pool of 489 applicants from across the United States and its territories. Nevada’s Tech Hub will strengthen America’s lithium batteries, critical elements and other electric vehicle materials industry sectors within the state. Through its commitment to high-impact education, world-improving research and creative activity, and outreach that’s transforming Nevada’s communities and businesses, the University continues its 150-year tradition of benefitting our state, nation and world.

The Department of Biology at SUNY Geneseo invites applications for a tenure track position at the rank of Assistant Professor to begin in August 2026. The department seeks a scientist with training in Bioinformatics or Computational Biology with a passion for teaching who will contribute to the broad education in biology we provide to our majors and to the college community. A strong applicant will demonstrate an ability to contribute to Geneseo’s growing expertise in the areas of data analytics, bioinformatics, and computational biology. This is an in-residence 3-3 teaching position that may require teaching in multiple modalities including in-person laboratories depending on the needs of the department and college.The duties of the position include:Teaching required courses in residence in the Biology programs and/or non-majors biology, and elective courses in bioinformatics or computational/data-intensive biologyDeveloping and maintaining a research program in Bioinformatics or Computational Biology that engages undergraduate students from all backgrounds and generates scholarly products appropriate to the field. Faculty are expected to apply for external funding for continuing appointment and promotion.Academic advising and service to the department, the college, the community, and profession, including contributing to curriculum development in Bioinformatics or Computational BiologyThe mission of the Department of Biology at SUNY Geneseo is to provide students from across New York State and beyond with a well-rounded background in biology, which can be used as a solid foundation for various careers in the biological sciences, health professions, and beyond. As a primarily undergraduate institution (PUI), we aspire to promote belonging among all our students, faculty and staff. This is achieved in part by having small class sizes ranging from 12 to 60 students per course, even in required and introductory courses in our popular and vibrant biology programs. Outside the classroom, undergraduate students work closely and directly with faculty to produce research and in other meaningful high-impact experiences, contributing to a high rate of students heading to graduate or professional school.Our campus has a growing cohort of faculty teaching and working in data science, analytics, and applied AI across multiple departments in the Arts and Sciences and the School of Business. Recent “cluster” hires offer the opportunity for collaborations within and across disciplines. Geneseo also has two shared, Lambda workstations accessible to faculty and students suitable for research computing tasks, a GIS lab, and multiple computer labs.
