The University of Virginia Arts & Sciences Department of Environmental
Sciences invites applicants for two tenure-track Assistant or tenured
Associate/Full Professor positions in the geosciences, focusing on earth
surface processes. We wish to hire outstanding scientists who will thrive in
an interdisciplinary department with hydrologists, atmospheric scientists,
ecologists and geoscientists, and are passionate about research and
teaching. 

Surface processes in the geosciences covers a broad area of subspecialties
and environments, and may include physical, chemical, biological, and
human-caused phenomena. Examples of research areas that would strengthen and
enhance our existing program include, but are not limited to, fluvial
geomorphology, slope and upland processes, critical zone processes, coastal
systems, depositional systems (deltas, lakes, swamps), desert/arctic/alpine
environments, and geohistory. 

In addition to developing external funding to support research endeavors,
candidates will be expected to teach at the graduate and undergraduate
levels, including the teaching of our undergraduate core course for majors
(EVSC 2800, Fundamentals of Geology), and provide service to the University,
Department and professional organizations. 

Candidates at the assistant professor level are expected to have a promising
research agenda, while those at the associate and full levels are expected
to have a nationally recognized publication record of innovative research. 

Review of applications will begin December 1, 2017; however the position
will remain open until filled. The appointments begin with the fall term of
2018, with an anticipated start date of July 25, 2018. Applicants must be on
track to receive a Ph.D. in the relevant field by May 2018 and must hold a
PhD at the time of appointment. 

To apply candidates must submit a Candidate Profile through Jobs at UVa
(https://jobs.virginia.edu), search on posting number 0621672 and
