We are seeking a post-doctoral student to conduct integrated groundwater-surface water modeling at the watershed scale, working with Professor John McCray. The project involves modeling hydrology and water quality for both groundwater and surface water in the Arequipa Region (Valley de Vitor) of southwestern Peru. This project is part of a larger effort with a highly interdisciplinary team of faculty, post-docs and students at Colorado School of Mines (Mines) working with faculty and students at Universidad Nacional de San Agustin de Arequipa (UNSA). The ideal experience would include basin-scale groundwater modeling using MODFLOW or similar, watershed modeling using SWAT or similar, with some experience in groundwater-surface water interactions and/or in water quality modeling at the watershed scale a. Candidates with modeling experience in either of the above areas will also be strongly considered. The post-doc will be housed in the Civil & Environmental Engineering Department at Mines, and will be an active member of the Hydrologic Science and Engineering Program. Mines is an equal opportunity employer, and diversity in culture and experience is highly desired. The position starts as early as April 1, 2019, but a later hire (i.e., early to mid summer) is likely acceptable. The current project end date is 31 December 2020, but continued work is anticipated if desired by the post-doc. Those interested should send a letter of interest and project relevant experience (1 page), a CV (3 pages or less), and names of 3 referees, including the candidate’s PhD advisor by March 18, 2019 to:
Prof. John E. McCray
