He joined the staff of Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan in 1948 and became a full professor of Chemistry there in 1954.[4] He subsequently served as Chairman of the Chemistry Department,[5][6] Vice President for Research, and Interim Provost to the University.


In 1958 he was a member of the Cancer Chemotherapy National Service organization.[7]


Stevens received a Guggenheim Fellowship at the Sorbonne in 1955. He served as a Scientific Officer for the U.S. Embassy in London in 1959.
