Tenure-Track Faculty Positions in Chemical Oceanography, University of South Florida, USA
The College of Marine Science (CMS) at the University of South Florida (USF) invites applications for nine-month tenure-track faculty in Chemical Oceanography. Appointments will be at the Assistant, Associate, or Professor level, with rank dependent on qualifications and experience.
We are searching for Chemical Oceanographers who will contribute to an understanding of the earth and ocean system, from fundamental chemical topics to global scale processes, through interactions with multi-disciplinary oceanographic and marine science faculty and programs. We anticipate that qualified candidates will carry out hypothesis-based research employing modern chemical/geochemical tools including laboratory and/or field-based observation and chemical analysis, or numerical modeling at a range of scales. We especially seek high quality candidates who study organic biogeochemistry (including, but not limited to, sediment geochemistry, isotope geochemistry, DOM and molecular characterization, metabolomics), global biogeochemical modeling, rates/fluxes and/or chemical processes at oceanic interfaces (e.g. atmosphere, sediments, particles/micro-environments, hydrothermal vents).
Candidates will be selected based on their potential to conduct transformative research, productivity with respect to peer-reviewed publications, acquisition of external research funding, potential for outstanding mentoring and teaching, and a commitment to service and community engagement. Successful candidates are expected to teach specialty courses at the graduate level.
Minimum Requirements: Must have a PhD in a relevant scientific discipline at the time of hire and research experience in Chemical Oceanography.
These positions will be open until filled; however, priority review of applications will begin by January 3rd, 2025.
