*Tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Ocean Data Science,
Department of Oceanography, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX.*

Data Science in Oceanography spans disciplines from climate science to
molecular biology. Its integration into Oceanography has the potential to
change conventional research approaches by combining emerging data
analytics technology with high-resolution and multidisciplinary
ocean-related datasets. We seek an interdisciplinary early career scholar
with a record of active research and publication in the area of Ocean Data
Science to join the Department of Oceanography at Texas A&M University at
the rank of tenure-track Assistant Professor. We expect this individual to
play an active role in strengthening our existing interdisciplinary
research programs by nucleating new research initiatives that utilize data
analytics, information processing, and/or high performance computing to
address problems in Oceanographic research. In addition to collaborations
within the Department of Oceanography, the newly established Texas A&M
Institute of Data Science (TAMIDS) (https://tamids.tamu.edu) provides an
excellent platform to launch new Data Science related research
collaborations. We welcome applicants with any disciplinary specialty in
Ocean Data Science application and technology, including biological
oceanography, ocean remote sensing, ocean and climate modeling, and others.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. (or equivalent) and at least 5 years of
research experience in Ocean Data Science application and technology.
Candidates for this position should submit a letter of application,
curriculum vitae, and the names of three confidential references to
