Ray Russo
Institution: University of Florida, Dept. of Geological Sciences
Open Until: 2017-12-31
The Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Florida invites applications for a tenure track position in Geophysics at the Assistant Professor level. Applicants should be able to contribute to an existing internationally known program in observational and computational solid Earth geophysics. We have a preference for candidates with expertise in Earth or space-based sensor analyses of neotectonics, geodesy, seismology, natural hazards, remote sensing of planetary surfaces, water resources, basin analysis, and resource exploration. We seek scholars committed to teaching classes in their discipline at the undergraduate and graduate levels and who show evidence of strong research trajectories. The successful candidate will be expected to develop an active, externally funded research program that includes supporting and mentoring graduate students. Preference will be given to candidates whose research interests complement and enhance existing research programs in the Department (geology.ufl.edu). Candidates who would utilize and benefit from University of Florida’s high performance computing facilities are also encouraged to apply (https://www.rc.ufl.edu/services/computation/hipergator/). Applicants must hold a Ph.D. and preferably have some post-doctoral experience. The salary is competitive and commensurate with qualifications and experience, and includes a full benefits package.
For full consideration, applications must be submitted online at http://explore.jobs.ufl.edu/cw/en-us/listing/. Applications should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a summary of current and future research plans, an overview of teaching experience and goals, and the names and contact information of three references. The Search Committee will begin reviewing applications on October 31, 2017; the position will remain open until filled. The start date is August 2018. Inquiries can be directed to the Search Committee Chair, Ray Russo, (rrusso<at>ufl.edu).
The successful candidate will be required to provide an official transcript to the hiring department upon hire. A transcript will not be considered “official” if a designation of “Issued to Student” is visible. Degrees earned from an educational institution outside of the United States require evaluation by a professional credentialing service provider approved by the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES), which can be found at http://www.naces.org/.
The University of Florida is an equal opportunity institution dedicated to building a broadly diverse and inclusive faculty and staff. The successful candidate must be able to work with students, faculty and staff from a wide range of social and cultural backgrounds. We are especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community. Searches are conducted in accordance with Florida's Sunshine Law. If an accommodation due to disability is needed to apply for this position, please call (352) 392-2477 or the Florida Relay System at (800) 955-8771 (TDD).
