[ES_JOBS_NET] Faculty position at Caltech - Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences

[Jennifer Shechet]

The Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences at the California
Institute of Technology is seeking outstanding applicants for a
tenure-track faculty position. We seek individuals who will lead an
innovative research program, are committed to teaching and mentorship of
undergraduate and graduate students, and of postdoctoral fellows, and
display interest in enhancing the diversity of the institute. We invite
applicants in any area of Earth and/or planetary sciences, broadly defined.
All subdisciplines are of interest—including, but not limited to: geology,
geochemistry, geobiology, geophysics, planetary science, and environmental
science and engineering.

The term of the initial appointment at the assistant professor level is
four years and is contingent upon completion of a Ph.D. degree.
Reappointment beyond the initial term is contingent upon successful review
conducted prior to the commencement of the fourth year. Exceptionally
well-qualified candidates may also be considered at the tenured professor
level. Initial review of applications will begin on March 1, 2021, but
applications will be accepted until the position is filled.

Interested applicants should submit an electronic application that
includes: a brief cover letter, a curriculum vita (including publications),
a short research statement (no more than 3 pages), a teaching statement (1
page), and three letters of recommendation. We also ask that applicants
submit a diversity and inclusion statement (1 page) that discusses past
and/or anticipated contributions to improving diversity, equity, and
inclusion in the areas of research, teaching, and/or outreach. We will
evaluate each applicants’ research accomplishments and potential, as well
as the teaching, mentoring, collaboration, and leadership skills necessary
to run a successful academic research group (e.g. initiative, persistence,
enthusiasm, communication).
