Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my interest in the visiting professor opportunity at your institution. With 7 years of experience as a Professor of Environmental Sciences, specializing in teaching and research, I believe I am well-equipped to contribute to your academic environment.

Currently, I hold the position of Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of Sunnybank’s Faculty of Biotechnology and Environment, where my focus is on driving environmental and social change through my teaching and research. My teaching modules cover a range of topics at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels, including Postglacial Environments, Biodiversity Conservation, and Energy Management.

My research areas concentrate on the social and legal aspects of the environment and energy planning, and I have contributed to publications such as Erick Miska’s (2017) Environmental and Social Change in the 21st Century. In addition to my academic achievements, I hold a Doctorate of Environmental Sciences, a Master of Biotechnology, and a Bachelor of Environment and Society.

I have greatly enjoyed my time at Sunnybank, but am now seeking a new challenge in a visiting professor role that will allow me to continue driving sustainable energy and climate planning through teaching and scholarly activities. I have attached my curriculum vitae for your review and would appreciate the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your institution further.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of discussing my qualifications in more detail.

Yours sincerely,

Summer Smith
