Position description Biological Oceanographer
The College of Geosciences at Texas A&M University in College Station,
TX will hire 20 new faculty over the next four years in three target
areas: Climate Change; Oceans. Atmospheres, and Environmental/Human
Health; and Environmental and Hydrological Geosciences. As part
of this effort, the Department of Oceanography is seeking applications
for a faculty position in Biological Oceanography that would complement
an on-going program in ocean observing systems. This is a tenure-track
faculty position which provides 9 months per year of state support.
Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in Oceanography or closely related
field. Examples of relevant interests include (but are not limited
to): development of new sensor technologies suitable for deployment
on an observing platform, remote sensing of the marine environment,
use of optical or acoustical technologies for studying biological
processes, and modeling of biological systems that incorporates
data from observing platforms. The position is at the Assistant
Professor level, although exceptional candidates will be considered
for Associate or Full Professor status. The successful candidate
is expected to teach and mentor graduate and undergraduate students,
and develop a strong research program with extramural funding. We
encourage applications from candidates who will increase the exposure
of our students to a diverse culture. See http://oceanography.tamu.edu
for more information about our program.
Interested
candidates should send current curriculum vitae, statement of research
interests, and the names, postal addresses, and email addresses
of three references to Professor George Jackson, Search Committee
