      DESCRIPTION

The Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of 
California, Davis seeks applications for a tenure-track faculty 
appointment in the broad area of Earth-Life Interactions. Appointment 
will be at the Assistant Professor level regardless of the proposed 
appointee's qualifications. We seek creative scientists who study the 
interactions between life and surface environments on any spatial and 
temporal scale using novel laboratory, field, and/or computational 
approaches. We encourage applications from a diverse range of 
disciplines including, but not restricted to, biogeochemistry, 
geobiology, and paleoclimatology. We are particularly interested in 
applicants who will expand our current research programs and have the 
potential to build new connections both within the department and across 
campus, such as with other departments in the Division of Mathematical 
and Physical Sciences, the College of Agriculture and Environmental 
Sciences, College of Biological Sciences, College of Engineering, or the 
UC Davis Genomics Center.

Candidates must possess a Ph.D. or equivalent in geoscience or a related 
field by the time of appointment. The appointee is expected to develop 
and maintain a vigorous externally funded research program and to teach 
at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Supervision of graduate 
students and departmental, university, and service to the discipline are 
expected. The department’s current research programs and experimental, 
analytical and computational facilities are described 
athttp://geology.ucdavis.edu/facilities.

Candidates should submit a cover letter, CV, publication list, 
statements of research plans, teaching interests, and contributions to 
diversity, and contact information of four references by June 15, 2017. 
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until 
the position is filled. Guidance for diversity statements may be found
