approaches. We encourage applications from a diverse range of disciplines
including, but not restricted to, biogeochemistry, geobiology, and
paleoclimatology. We are particularly interested in applicants who will
expand our current research programs and have the potential to build new
connections both within the department and across campus, such as with
other departments in the Division of Mathematical and Physical Sciences,
the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, College of
Biological Sciences, or the UC Davis Genomics Center.

Appointment will be at the Assistant Professor rank. Candidates must
possess a Ph.D. or equivalent in geoscience or a related field by the time

The department’s current research programs and experimental, analytical and
computational facilities are described at http://geology.ucdavis.edu/
