Details
The Department of Chemistry at the University of Utah invites applications for a career-line (non-tenure-track) faculty member at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor (Lecturer). We seek a model educator to help us provide a world-class education for every undergraduate student. The successful applicant will have:
1) a PhD or equivalent in Chemistry, Chemistry education or a related field;
2) a commitment to equity in Chemistry education and record of utilizing inclusive, evidence-based instructional practices;
3) experience collaborating with faculty, staff, and students to reform aspects of the undergraduate Chemistry curriculum; and
4) excellent communication, organization, and leadership skills. We are seeking a long-term colleague who will be fully integrated into our department.
The responsibilities of the successful candidate will be to:
- Teach several departmental courses per year. The expectation is that the core teaching will include organic chemistry and general chemistry (both lab and lecture) but may also include other courses as appropriate.
- Work with other faculty to develop, implement, and assess the effectiveness of curriculum reforms.
- Serve as a model and consultant for other faculty who want to utilize inclusive, evidence-based instructional practices in their courses.
- Work with Chemistry staff and faculty affiliates to help execute college-wide educational programs. While the successful candidate will not be expected to seek external funding or publish peer-reviewed papers, collaborative opportunities for such activities may be possible, provided they are synergistic with the above responsibilities.
This is an exciting time in the Department of Chemistry. The University is experiencing large enrollment increases, resulting in a more diverse student body from a broader range of academic, geographic, socioeconomic, ethnic, and life-experience backgrounds. We seek a colleague committed to inclusive excellence who will make a lasting impact on our department and institution. The Department is committed to continuing to build a robust and varied intellectual community, and encourages applicants of all races, ethnicities, genders, backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives to apply.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Clinical Assistant Professor
Translate your Australian credentials for U.S. hiring
U.S. academic search committees expect a curriculum vitae structured around teaching evaluations, grant funding, and publications. Reformat yours to match these conventions before applying, since a standard Australian CV layout can stall shortlisting at research-intensive institutions.
Target departments with active clinical training programs
Clinical assistant professor positions tied to patient care or simulation labs are more consistently classified as specialty occupations by DOL, which strengthens your E-3 LCA. Focus applications on health professions schools and medical schools with established clinical curricula.
Confirm the LCA is employer-filed before signing
Your offer letter should confirm the university's HR or legal team will file the Labor Condition Application with DOL before your consulate appointment. If it doesn't, ask explicitly, since some departments mistakenly assume you handle it.
Time your application around the academic hiring cycle
Most U.S. universities post clinical faculty positions between August and December for roles starting the following academic year. Submitting outside this window means competing for a much smaller pool of mid-year vacancies, which often fill without a full search process.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your paperwork
Once you have an offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end-to-end. This keeps the process on track between your start date and your Sydney, Melbourne, or Perth consulate appointment.
Clarify teaching versus research duties in your offer letter
If your role is split between clinical instruction and independent research, confirm the job description explicitly states both duties. USCIS and consular officers assess specialty occupation on the documented role, not how you describe it verbally at interview.
E-3 Visa Clinical Assistant Professor: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Clinical Assistant Professor jobs that offer E-3 sponsorship?
Search Migrate Mate to filter Clinical Assistant Professor openings by employers with E-3 sponsorship history. University positions in health professions schools and academic medical centers are the most common source of sponsored clinical faculty roles for Australian nationals, and filtering by sponsorship history saves significant time during the search.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Clinical Assistant Professor roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens and has no lottery, no annual cap, and no filing season. H-1B visa requires entering a randomised lottery with roughly a one-in-four selection chance, and losing means waiting another year. For Australians in clinical academia, the E-3 is a direct path that bypasses that uncertainty entirely.
Does a university need to prove it couldn't find a U.S. candidate before sponsoring me?
No. The E-3 does not require a PERM labour market test, which means your employer doesn't need to advertise the role extensively or document recruitment outcomes before filing. The university only needs to certify the role meets prevailing wage standards through the DOL Labor Condition Application process.
Can I hold an E-3 if my Clinical Assistant Professor appointment is part-time or non-tenure-track?
Yes, but the role still needs to meet the specialty occupation definition, which requires a specific bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field. Part-time appointments are permitted under E-3 rules, though your consular officer will scrutinise whether the position constitutes genuine employment rather than a token affiliation.
