Full job description

Location: CBU
Competition Number: 212
Deadline: September 15, 2026 at 11:59 pm

The Department of Mathematics, Physics & Geology in the School of Science & Technology at CBU invites applications for a full-time Lab Instructor, Physics at the rank of Lab Instructor. This position will commence in January 2027.

One of Canada’s youngest and most ambitious universities, CBU recognizes its location on Cape Breton Island as part of Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. CBU offers a comprehensive set of liberal arts, science, and professional programs and a unique commitment to community, economic development, aboriginal learning, and research into many aspects of environment and culture.

CBU delivers an authentic multicultural experience to all who become part of its academic community. Surrounded by pristine natural landscape, vibrant culture, and welcoming communities on Canada’s stunning east coast, CBU attracts students from more than 50 countries around the world. Our faculty bring passion to their teaching and research and we are known for our friendly and inclusive culture. Strong community involvement and a spirit of entrepreneurship enhance CBU’s position in post-secondary education.

The successful candidate will be responsible for teaching labs in support of our Physics courses and be responsible for maintenance and management of Physics lab equipment. There is potential to teach labs associated to Calculus and Statistics as well as the occasional delivery of Physics courses at the introductory level.

The minimal qualification required is a bachelor’s degree in physics with teaching experience at the post-secondary level. However, the department of Mathematics, Physics, and Geology gives strong preference to candidates with a Masters degree in an area of experimental physics and direct experience in maintenance/management of experimental equipment.

Applications for the successful candidate will include an:

Cover Letter
Current CV
Teaching Statement
Document describing relevant experience in reference to the descriptions above (If the candidate received their degree after 2023, university transcripts are required)
List of at least three references. Short listed candidates will be required to submit two reference letters.

Please upload all required documents to Additional Documents if no designated area is listed. Incomplete applications may not be considered.

CBU teaches programs on campus, off campus in locations across and outside of Canada, and on-line. The university and its partners will therefore provide opportunities for faculty members to teach in different modes in different locations as part of their regular workload. While these opportunities may not be available equally for all faculty positions in all programs, a clear willingness to teach in different modes and locations will be noted as part of your application.

The union affiliation of this position is with the Cape Breton University Faculty Association.

Applications must be received by September 15th, 2026.

Cape Breton University is strongly committed to fostering diversity within our community. We welcome those who would contribute to the further diversification of our staff, our faculty and its scholarship including, but not limited to, women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, and persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity. Please note that all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply but applications from Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.

CBU is committed to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) and applicants are encouraged to self-identity if they are part of a marginalized community, or have experience working with Indigenous communities.

If we contact you for an interview and you are a person with a disability who requires technical aids or alternative arrangements, please let us know of these needs and how we can be of assistance.
