We have two open positions at the Assistant or Associate Professor level in the areas of 1) Environmental Earth Science and 2) Petrology/Geochemistry/Structure.


For the first position, we seek a colleague with expertise in emerging challenges in climate and/or resources (e.g., earth systems modeling, geoengineering, water resources, carbon management, strategic elements and minerals, energy transitions, alternative energy resources) to help grow our Earth Science environmental programs into the future.

For the second position, we are looking for a colleague with a research emphasis in the dynamics and evolution of solid earth systems. Specific areas of interest include (but are not limited to) igneous and metamorphic processes, geochronology, high-temperature geochemistry, and structural geology. Candidates with expertise that strengthens our department’s research and teaching in the areas of petrology, mineralogy, and/or geochemistry are particularly encouraged to apply.
