Applicants should have a PhD in a field related to Environmental Studies or a field such as computer science or mathematics with demonstrated research in environmental contexts. The successful applicant will complement existing strengths in the unit, act as a bridge between CU Boulder’s excellence in the natural and social sciences, and contribute to campus efforts toward developing solutions that address complex human-environment problems. The new hire will also demonstrate evidence of strong teaching and mentoring, will be expected to contribute to undergraduate and graduate programs, and will support and encourage a diverse and inclusive research and learning environment. Applicants with a minimum of one year of postdoctoral experience and a history of cross-disciplinary collaborations are especially encouraged to apply.


Your main duties will include research, teaching, and service. The successful candidate will be expected to conduct an active program of research, secure external funding, publish in refereed outlets, and present research at domestic and international conferences. The successful applicant will teach three courses per year at the undergraduate and/or graduate level in areas congruent to student demand and departmental needs. Service to the university is also a component of the regular workload for all faculty.
