Department of Environmental Sciences


The Department of Environmental Sciences (ENVS) at Emory University invites
applications for a full-time, nine-month, tenure-track Assistant Professor
in Urban Social-Ecological Systems. We seek candidates whose work focuses
on urban issues with an environmental context. We are particularly
interested in candidates whose work is inter- or multi-disciplinary,
especially those with training in the social sciences, broadly defined.
Application from candidates whose work has strong quantitative, mixed
methods, and/or spatial analysis elements are particularly welcomed.

Topical areas of interest are broad and include, but are not limited to,
urban planning and public policy, sustainability/sustainable development,
collaborative governance, climate change, and environmental justice, among
many others. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a
widely-recognized research program that attracts external funding and
contributes to the interdisciplinary mission of the department and the
university; teach and mentor at both the graduate and undergraduate levels;
and contribute to the department, university, and relevant professional
societies and community through service, collaboration and engagement.

Candidates must have a Ph.D. in environmental studies/sciences, geography,
political science, sociology, anthropology, economics, urban planning,
public policy, ecology, data science, engineering, or related fields. We
are particularly interested in candidates whose work combine disciplines in
novel ways. Candidates must have an excellent research record, evidence of
teaching potential in a multidisciplinary setting, and a demonstrated
commitment to inclusion and diversity.


We embrace diversity and seek candidates who will participate in a climate
that attracts students of all ethnicities, races, nationalities, and
genders. Emory University is an equal employment opportunity and
affirmative action employer. Women, minorities, people with disabilities
and veterans are strongly encouraged to apply.
