ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI
The Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Missouri invites applications for a tenure-track, Assistant Professor position beginning August 2013 in the broadly defined area of sedimentology and sedimentary processes. The successful candidate’s research will ideally complement and expand upon departmental expertise. We seek an individual who will contribute to interdisciplinary studies of sedimentary systems on a variety of time scales with possible emphasis on sedimentary geochemistry, diagenesis in carbonates and/or siliciclastic rocks, biological patterns in the rock record, evolution of terrestrial and/or marine depositional systems, or tectonic and climate forcing recorded in sedimentary rocks.
Completion of the PhD at the time of appointment is required. Applicants should be prepared to prove eligibility to work in the United States. The successful applicant will be expected to teach across the curriculum, i.e., introductory classes, advanced undergraduate courses, and graduate courses in his/her area of expertise. The applicant will also be expected to develop an active, externally funded research program and to direct graduate student research at the M.S. and Ph.D. levels.
Please apply on-line at: http://hrs.missouri.edu/find-a-job/academic
In addition to a
curriculum vitae (CV), applicants should include a letter describing
their geologic interests and qualifications for the position, a teaching
portfolio, a curriculum vitae, and a list of three references
(including contact information). Items other than the CV should be
uploaded in the Attachments section of the application system. The CV
should be saved in the Resume/CV section of the application. Initial
screening of applicants will begin January 4, 2013
and will continue until a suitable candidate is hired. Information
