Dear colleagues

The Faculty of Earth Sciences (FES) in the School of Engineering and
Natural Sciences at the University of Iceland seeks to fill a tenure-track
position in the field of structural geology and tectonics.

We seek an individual with an outstanding track-record in research and a
great potential for establishing a world-class research program as well
as excellent teaching of structural geology and tectonics.

Field of work:
- Teaching in undergraduate and graduate geology courses, including
subjects on structural geology and tectonics and related fields.
- Establish a vigorous, externally funded research program, publish
scholarly work, and advise graduate and undergraduate students.
- Lead teaching and work of students in structural geology in the field and
promote the increased interest of future geoscientists in acquiring basic
knowledge as well as mastering the state-of-the-art methods in structural
geology.
- Establish international high-quality collaborative projects in structural
geology and tectonics with reference to Iceland's geology. These projects
should preferably focus on understanding brittle structures, faulting, dike
emplacement and tectonics in basalt-dominated volcanic successions.
- The research program should preferably combine high-quality fieldwork on
structures and modelling of the physical processes that give rise to those
structures.

Qualification requirements
- Ph.D. degree in Geology/Earth Sciences/Geophysics with focus on
structural geology and tectonics
- Broad research background within structural geology and tectonics
- Demonstrated ability to obtain funding for and lead research projects
- Cooperative skills and experience of working in cross-disciplinary teams
- Good communicational and interpersonal skills
- Experience in the university academic environment and ability to form
research relations
- Strong background in fieldwork on geological structures as well as
knowledge of the mechanical and physical principles that control brittle
deformation and modelling of such processes

The application deadline is 28 May 2021.

Freysteinn Sigmundsson, Head of the Faculty of Earth Sciences at University
of Iceland (email: fs@xxxxx)

Best wishes,
Freysteinn
