The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Michigan invites applications for a postdoctoral position in Geophysics as part of the “Collegiate Postdoctoral Fellowship Program”. Successful candidates will be hired as postdoctoral scholars as preparation for possible tenure-track assistant professor positions in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts at University of Michigan.

The Program is a college-wide search for “exceptional scholars who are committed to diversity in the academy” and “scholars with a demonstrated interest in bringing to their research and undergraduate teaching the critical perspective that comes from their non-traditional educational background and/or scholarly understanding of the experiences of groups historically underrepresented in higher education.” The Program is open to all fields of study but the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences is particularly keen on receiving applications from candidates in Geophysics who contribute complementary strength to the faculty in the Department.
The application deadline is October 2, 2017. Applicants must have completed the doctoral degree no later than July 1, 2018, and no earlier than January 1, 2015. For more details, see https://lsa.umich.edu/lsa/about/diversity--equity-and-inclusion/lsa-collegiate-postdoctoral-fellowship-program.html
