</div>
<div>The School of Earth and Space Exploration (SESE) in The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Arizona State University invites applications for the postdoctoral research scholar position of Exploration Fellow. The mission of the postdoctoral fellowship
is to foster SESE’s interdisciplinary research program by attracting and supporting outstanding early-career scientists and engineers to pursue independent research in collaboration with SESE faculty. Research areas within SESE encompass theoretical and observational
astrophysics, astrobiology, cosmology, earth surface processes, planetary science, instrumentation and systems engineering, and science education. Anticipated start date for the position is July 2020. Incoming Fellows will receive an annual stipend of $65,000
with health benefits, plus $12,000 per year in discretionary research funds. A relocation allowance will be provided. The initial appointment is for one year with subsequent annual renewal for up to a total of three years, contingent upon satisfactory performance,
the needs of the university, and availability of resources.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Interested candidates should contact two faculty members in SESE to discuss potential collaborative research topics and determine whether they would agree to serve as an Exploration Fellow mentor. When a topic of mutual interest between the applicant and
potential faculty mentors is identified, the applicant should submit a research proposal as a single PDF that includes: (1) a cover letter identifying the proposed research topic and the names of the two faculty mentors, (2) a current CV, (3) a research proposal
not longer than five pages (including figures and references), and (4) one paper exemplifying the applicant’s research. Applicants should arrange for three letters of reference to be submitted separately. Preference will be given to proposals that include
interdisciplinary research spanning multiple research areas within SESE.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Essential duties: The successful applicant will conduct original research, document results and write journal articles, and present at scientific meetings.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Minimum Qualifications: Ph.D. by the time of appointment in a field relevant to Earth and Space exploration, including (but not limited to) astrophysics, physics, chemistry, geology, biology, and engineering. Candidates must be within five years from
receipt of the doctoral degree.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Desired Qualifications: (1) research proposal that demonstrates relevance, interdisciplinary merit, and/or potential impact of the proposed research activities to the overarching “big picture” research questions in the field and to the mission of SESE,
(2) a record of prior achievement and experience demonstrating the potential to accomplish proposed research objectives, (3) evidence of strong verbal and written communication skills.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Application materials should be submitted as a <u>single PDF file</u>. The application, and any related questions, should be submitted by email to
<u><a href="mailto:exppd@asu.edu" target="_blank">exppd@asu.edu</a></u>, addressed to the Exploration Fellowship Committee. Applications will only be given full consideration when all materials described above are received in the requested PDF format. <br>
