The Department of Environmental Sciences at Emory University, Atlanta, 
GA, seeks applicants for a full-time lecture-track position (Lecturer) 
with a focus on field teaching, beginning Fall 2017. We are open to a 
wide range of disciplinary or interdisciplinary academic backgrounds 
relevant to field teaching in environmental sciences, geosciences, 
ecology, or related fields. The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. 
granted by the time of the offer letter and demonstrate a commitment to 
excellence in undergraduate teaching in an innovative interdisciplinary 
environment.

The successful applicant will advise students and teach introductory and 
upper-level undergraduate courses with a focus on teaching outdoor-based 
courses. Such courses could take place in and around the Emory 
campus—which has excellent resources for field teaching—as well as 
further afield, from the state of Georgia to around the world. We 
particularly welcome applicants with field-based research experience 
with undergraduate students, and interest or experience in community 
engagement and/or discipline-based education research. We also encourage 
applications from candidates with a strong track record of teaching and 
mentoring students from under-represented groups.

The initial appointment will be made for a period of three years with 
potential for promotion to Senior Lecturer after 6 years (in exceptional 
cases candidates could be considered at this rank). Please 
see:http://college.emory.edu/home/administration/policy/lecturer.htmlfor 
details about lecture-track appointments at Emory.

The successful candidate will join a friendly and cohesive faculty group 
of tenure-track and lecture-track faculty (http://www.emory.edu/ENVS/) 
and will be expected to contribute to the academic life of the 
department, the College of Arts and Sciences, and the University through 
service and academic committees.

Applicants should submit a cover letter; CV; two-page teaching 
statement; and the names and contact information of three references. 
Submit all application materials via Interfolio 
(http://apply.interfolio.com/37109). Evaluation of candidates will begin 
on November 1, 2016 and will continue until the position is filled; 
applications received up to 30 days after review begins will be given 
full consideration. Questions related to the position (but not 
application materials) should be addressed to:envs.search at emory.edu

different position in Environmental Sciences / Geosciences at Emory 
University’s Oxford campus, 40 miles east of Atlanta
