Dear Colleagues,
I'd like to draw your attention to this position. The call is certainly broad enough that it might accommodate applicants working in geothermal and other topics of interest to the VOLCANO group.
Best,
Rick Aster
Department Chair

Visiting Professor in Energy Geoscience and Geophysics
The Department of Earth and Environmental Science (EES) of the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMT) invites applications for a 1-year (9- to 12-month, potentially renewable; non tenure-track) visiting Professor position in energy-related geoscience and geophysics beginning in August 2011. Responsibilities over the term of appointment include the teaching of upper-level undergraduate through introductory-level graduate level courses. Preference will be given to applicants with demonstrated expertise and teaching potential in geophysics, particularly in the area of reflection seismology and related topics. Full department and institute resources for teaching and research will be made available to the visiting professor over the course of the appointment to meet professional and career development needs. Salary range is negotiable based on experience, as are potential special arrangements related to ongoing research or publication efforts, staff support, and other professional considerations. The EES department (www.ees.nmt.edu) has an integrated undergraduate program and strongly interacting M.S. and Ph.D. programs in Geophysics, Hydrology, and Geology/Geochemistry, including options in Carbon Sequestration and Petroleum Geology. The department has 20 faculty and approximately 140 undergraduate and graduate students. EES and NMT also host the on-campus IRIS PASSCAL Instrument Center and EarthScope USArray Array Operations Facility (www.passcal.nmt.edu). Additional on-campus geoscience resources include the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources (geoinfo.nmt.edu), and Petroleum Recovery Research Center (baervan.nmt.edu). NMT has a wide range of equipment and facilities to support geophysics and energy-related teaching and research, including a Landmark software site license, in-house computational resources, an IVI seismic MiniVibe system, and an extensive array of laboratories and computational resources.
