Two tenure-track faculty positions

Department of Geology

The Department of Geology at the University at Buffalo is expanding and invites applications for two tenure-track faculty positions. Assistant or Associate Professor of Near Surface Geophysics or Hydrogeophysics. We seek a scholar who applies geophysical techniques to solve hydrogeologic problems. Researchers interested in developing novel approaches to characterize hydrogeologic processes and/or properties over a range of spatial scales and/or by combining data from multiple tools are of particular interest. Assistant Professor of Volcanology. We seek a volcanologist with preference given to candidates with a strong background and interest in geophysical approaches to understanding and anticipating volcanic eruptions, and incorporation of such information into hazard assessment and mitigation strategies.

The successful candidates will join the Department's growing environmental and established volcanology groups that maintain interdisciplinary collaborations within UB and internationally, and will have opportunities to participate in activities of the UB Center for Geohazards Studies. The successful candidates will be expected to develop and maintain innovative, extramurally funded research programs that build on our current research and education strengths in hydrogeology, volcanology, climate change, and ecology. The successful candidates will have a demonstrated commitment to teaching; teaching duties will involve undergraduate and graduate level courses in the candidates' specialties. Service to the discipline, department and/or university is expected. Successful candidates must have a Ph.D. degree at the time of appointment. The Department is committed to the importance of a diverse faculty. Women and minorities are particularly encouraged to apply.

Applications must be submitted through the UB Jobs website:

Volcanology (posting #1300570) https://www.ubjobs.buffalo.edu/applicants/Central?quickFind=56487.

We will begin to review candidates on Oct. 1, 2013 and continue until the position is filled. Inquiries concerning these positions should be made to geology@buffalo.edu.
