Assistant Professor in Marine Ecology

The Williams-Mystic Maritime Studies Program in Mystic, Connecticut invites
applications for an assistant professor to teach marine ecology, supervise
independent student research, and participate in 2-3 multi-day field
seminars (offshore sailing cruise and field seminars to the Pacific and
Gulf of Mexico coasts) in each of two semesters per year.  Our coastal
campus includes a state of the art marine science center. We are seeking a
scientist and educator with collaborative and interdisciplinary interests
to begin July 2017. This is a Williams College faculty appointment starting
as a three-year renewable position. Promotion to associate professor with
renewable five-year terms is possible after 2 three-year terms. This is
intended to be a career position with continued renewal going forward.

Williams-Mystic (mystic.williams.edu) is a selective off-campus program of
Williams College located at Mystic Seaport, with approx. 20 students each
semester from many different colleges. The mission of Williams-Mystic is to
empower global, creative citizens while cultivating an enduring
relationship with the sea. We create an open-minded, interdisciplinary
academic community through experiential learning at Mystic Seaport, along
the coasts of America, and on the ocean. Students of all majors study the
history, literature, policy and science of the ocean, focusing on
environment and sustainability.

We welcome applications from members of groups traditionally
underrepresented in the field, and we encourage you to write in your cover
letter about your ability to work effectively with a student population
that is broadly diverse with regard to gender, race, ethnicity,
nationality, sexual orientation, and religion; we also encourage you to
speak to any experience you have in working in a close-knit and highly
collaborative learning environment.

PhD expected by Sept. 2017. Applicants should submit a cover letter,
curriculum vitae, 1-page teaching statement, 1-page research statement,
transcripts, and three letters of reference by November 1, 2016.  All
materials should be addressed to Denise Buell, Dean of the Faculty, and
must be submitted through Interfolio using this link:

to Executive Director Tom Van Winkle (tsv1 at williams.edu).
