Assistant Professor (Tenure-Track) Faculty Position in Geology at UCLA
The UCLA Department of Earth, Planetary, and Space Sciences (EPSS) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor rank. We encourage applicants from all sub-disciplines of geology, geophysics, and planetary sciences to apply. Applications from individuals with expertise in tectonics/structural geology, rock/ice mechanics and rheology, glaciology, early Earth history, or other areas that complement the existing strengths at UCLA will be especially welcome. We encourage applications from those with experience in field- based research/teaching, and community/collegial service that has prepared them to contribute to our commitment to excellence and equity, diversity, and inclusion. Candidates are expected to hold a Ph.D. in geology or a related field by the date of hire.
EPSS faculty conduct research in geology, geobiology, geochemistry, planetary science, geophysics, paleobiology, and space physics. The Department has a strong tradition of integrative research that transcends traditional discipline boundaries. The ability of applicants to contribute to this multidisciplinary ethos, including research primarily focused on Earth, will be a consideration in evaluation, in addition to their commitment to enhancing the diversity of EPSS faculty and students.
To apply, candidates must submit (a) a cover letter, (b) CV, (c) statement of research, (d) statement of teaching, (e) statement of contributions to equity, diversity, and inclusion, (f) writing samples, (g) the names of three to five individuals who are familiar with your work and can serve as references, and (h) the reference check authorization release form.
Applications will be accepted via the UC Recruit website at https://recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF07865 beginning September 30, 2022, and reviews of submitted applications will commence on October 31, 2022 and continue until the position is filled.
Salary is commensurate with education and experience. The target start date is July 1, 2023.
UCLA has programs to assist in partner employment, childcare, schooling and other family concerns. For additional information, visit the UCLA Academic Personnel Office website or the UC Office of the President’s website.
The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, bullying and other demeaning behavior, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UCLA conducts targeted employment reference checks for finalists to whom departments or other hiring units would like to extend formal offers of appointment into Academic Senate faculty positions. The targeted employment reference checks involve contacting the finalists’ current and prior places of employment to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University’s Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UCLA requires all applicants for Academic Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled “Authorization to Release Information” into RECRUIT as part of their application. If the applicant does not include the signed authorization to release information with the applications materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Academic Senate faculty positions will be subject to targeted employment reference checks.

All Covered Individuals under the policy must provide proof of Full Vaccination or, if applicable, submit a request for Exception (based on Medical Exemption, Disability, and/or Religious Objection) or Deferral (based on pregnancy) no later than the applicable deadline.

(Capitalized terms in this paragraph are defined in the policy.) Federal, state, or local public health directives may impose additional requirements.
