SMSP is situated on the main campus in Newark and the coastal campus in
Lewes, which together offer convenient access to a variety of coastal and
estuarine environments in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Preferred candidates would integrate field observations with laboratory

hydrology, and geophysics, and geochemistry in the Department of Earth
Sciences and the Delaware Geological Survey and with coastal processes in
the Center for Applied Coastal Research.  The successful candidate will be
contributing to the undergraduate and graduate teaching mission of SMSP by
teaching courses in their area of expertise as well as general oceanography
and field-oriented courses.  The successful candidate will be expected to

research activities and service missions of SMSP. Candidates may be
considered for appointment at the Assistant or Associate Professor level.

A PhD (or equivalent) is required in earth or ocean science, coastal
processes, marine science or other related field. Successful candidates are
expected to have demonstrated excellence in research and a dedicated
interest in high quality teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate
level.
