What is a part time bioinformatics faculty?

Part time bioinformatics faculty are educators who teach bioinformatics courses or conduct related instruction at colleges or universities on a part-time basis. They may be responsible for developing course materials, delivering lectures, mentoring students, and assessing academic progress, but typically work fewer hours than full-time faculty. These positions are often held by professionals who also work in research, industry, or other academic appointments, allowing them to bring current, real-world experience into the classroom.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a part time bioinformatics faculty, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part Time Bioinformatics Faculty, you need a solid background in bioinformatics, computational biology, and teaching, typically supported by an advanced degree (Master’s or PhD) in a related field. Familiarity with programming languages (such as Python or R), bioinformatics databases, and learning management systems is essential. Strong communication, adaptability, and organizational skills help engage students and manage diverse course responsibilities. These skills ensure the delivery of high-quality education, support student learning, and keep curriculum relevant in a rapidly evolving field.

How do part time bioinformatics faculty typically balance teaching responsibilities with research and other professional commitments?

Part-time Bioinformatics Faculty often juggle multiple roles, such as teaching, conducting research, and sometimes working in industry. Balancing these responsibilities requires strong time management skills and clear communication with department coordinators regarding availability and workload. Many institutions support flexible scheduling and shared course materials, allowing faculty to focus on student engagement and curriculum delivery. Collaborating with full-time faculty and participating in departmental meetings can also help part-time faculty stay connected and effectively contribute to program goals.

Job description

Description
The Department of Biology at Tufts University seeks a part-time, non-tenure track faculty member to teach a computational biology course (Bio 35 - Computational Biology) in the fall of 2026 (September-December). The course is currently scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays from 1:30-2:45pm. Students in the course should learn and apply introductory programming skills in Python to explore quantitative and computational methods that are central components of contemporary evolutionary, ecological, and biomedical research. No programming skills of students in the course are assumed. Existing course materials can be used by the part-time lecturer, or they may use their own existing computational biology course materials.
Qualifications
Candidates should have a Ph.D. and teaching experience in a relevant topic area (e.g. computational biology, bioinformatics, evolutional/ecological genomics). Experience teaching computational biology courses, evidence of teaching success, and an invested interest in developing inclusive classroom spaces that promote success of all students will be part of the hiring criteria.
Application Instructions
All applications are submitted via Interfolio at https://apply.interfolio.com/188205. Applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, two confidential letters of recommendation, and student evaluations (if available).
Review will start immediately and continue until the position is filled.
For questions on this position please contact Jessica Orlando at jessica.orlando@tufts.edu.
All offers of employment are contingent upon the completion of a background check.
