The New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMT) invites
applications for two tenure-track, Assistant Professor positions in
Hydrology. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Earth Sciences, Civil
Engineering, Environmental Engineering, or a related field at the time of
appointment. For the first position, we seek candidates with interests in
flow and transport in porous and fractured media, hyporheic zone studies,
vadose zone hydrology, hydrogeophysics, and/or hydrogeomechanics. For the
second position, in hydrochemistry, we seek candidates with interests in
aqueous geochemistry and isotope hydrology or contaminant hydrology. For
both positions, potential for excellence in teaching and research are the
most important qualifications. Responsibilities will include developing an
active program of extramurally funded research, supervising and supporting
M.S. and Ph.D. students, teaching graduate and/or undergraduate courses,

Geophysics, Geology, and Geochemistry and has a history of
interdisciplinary research. Additional geoscience professionals on campus
include over 30 staff members of the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and
Mineral Resources, plus faculty and researchers in the Petroleum Recovery
Research Center and the IRIS PASSCAL Instrument Center. Analytical
facilities on campus include the stateof-the-art New Mexico Geochronology
Research Laboratory (40Ar/39Ar), a stable-isotope laboratory, electron
microprobe, XRD, ICP-MS systems for trace-element analysis (including a
laser-ablation ICP-MS), fission-track and cosmogenic isotope facilities,
and soil chemistry lab.

Applicants should submit a letter of interest, CV, statements of teaching
and research interests, one representative publication, and the names of
three references in a single pdf sent to Rosa Jaramillo (
