The successful candidate is expected to begin Fall 2019 and establish an extramurally funded, internationally recognized research program focused on biological responses to global anthropogenic change. We seek candidates who will strengthen our marine biology program (http://www.auburn.edu/cosam/departments/biology/marine-biology.htm) and also complement our core area in Behavior, Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation (http://www.auburn.edu/cosam/departments/biology/dbs_core_areas/beec_core_area/index.htm). We welcome candidates with research interests in population and community dynamics, invasive species biology, host-symbiont interactions, disturbance ecology, and other aspects of marine global change. Auburn University has formal ties to Dauphin Island Sea Laboratory (https://www.disl.org/), which offers new faculty unique opportunities to build research collaborations. The candidate will have teaching responsibilities in undergraduate marine science or related courses, and will be expected to develop or contribute to a graduate course in their research specialty.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:13.6pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Applicants should submit curriculum vitae, a description of research interests, a statement of teaching philosophy and experience, and the names and contact information of three professional references.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:13.6pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>More information about the department and its programs can be found at the following website: http://www.auburn.edu/cosam/departments/biology/<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:13.6pt'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Auburn University is one of the nation’s premier public land-grant institutions.
