The Department of Geology at Bates College invites applications for a

for teaching excellence in a vigorous undergraduate program, welcome the

advisory role, and share with other members of the department
responsibility for General-Education courses. Field-based and laboratory
projects, and collaboration with departmental colleagues offer a wide range
of instructional opportunities.

The successful candidate will teach an introductory course in global
change/environmental geology, a sophomore/junior level course in
environmental geochemistry, a 300-level course in an area of their
specialty and a 5 week field/lab course in an area of their own expertise.
Facilities include a staff-supported Environmental Geochemistry Laboratory
with ICP-OES, EA/GC-c-IRMS, and GC-FID, as well as staff-supported Imaging
and Computation Center, GIS and mobile GIS capabilities. A full-time
departmental assistant in instruction provides logistical support for the
introductory laboratories.

Completion, or near completion, of a PhD in the earth sciences is required
for this position. Review of applications begins April 1 and will continue
until the position is filled. Applicants should submit electronically, in

diversity of the campus community and the curriculum. Candidates who can
