applications for a tenure-track hydrogeology faculty position at the Assistant
Professor rank. We are seeking applications from a broad range of hydrogeology
experiences, including hydrogeochemistry and hydrogeophysics. This new position
will complement the ConocoPhillips School of Geology and Geophysics’ existing
strengths in petroleum, geophysical, and geochemical research while also
diversifying research and career options for our students with non-petroleum
interests. We seek an innovative colleague who will teach and mentor
undergraduates and graduate students at the M.S. and Ph.D. level. We expect the
successful applicant to develop a strong research and teaching program that
includes a substantial field component and integrates local, regional,
national, and international issues. The candidate should have an interest and
ability to develop into an excellent teacher; the candidate will teach 3
courses per year, including a hydrogeology course and a graduate course in the
applicant’s area of expertise. The candidate may also participate in our summer
field course.<span></span></span></p>

competitive and commensurate with experience. The ConocoPhillips School of
Geology and Geophysics has a large, vibrant faculty with a broad range of
research activities from fundamental to applied science and strong ties to the
petroleum industry. The student body currently includes 125 undergraduates and
100 M.S. and Ph.D. students. The University of Oklahoma employs many faculty
with water research programs in different departments across campus and has
developed several active initiatives focused on water monitoring, conservation,
remediation, and management (e.g., <a href="http://www.ou.edu/coe/centers/water.html" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">OU WaTER Center</span></a>, <a href="http://hydro.ou.edu/" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">Hydrometeorology and Remote Sensing Laboratory</span></a>, <a href="http://oklahomawatersurvey.org/" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">Oklahoma Water Survey</span></a>, <a href="http://kylemurray.oucreate.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">Oklahoma Geological Survey Hydrogeology Lab</span></a>, <a href="http://wefi.dges.ou.edu/" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">Water-Energy-Food Institute (WEFI)</span></a>, <a href="http://neesonlab.oucreate.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">the Neeson Lab</span></a>, and <a href="http://www.ou.edu/coe/centers/crew.html" target="_blank"><span style="color:rgb(39,124,173)">Center for Restoration of
