[ES_JOBS_NET] 2-Year Visiting Lecturer in Environmental Studies/Geosciences at Wellesley College

[Jackie Matthes]

The Environmental Studies and Geosciences Departments at Wellesley College
invite applications for a two-year position as a Visiting Lecturer to begin
Fall 2021 (with the possibility of renewal). The person in this position
will be expected to teach gateway introductory courses for the
Environmental Studies and Geosciences Departments with content areas
focusing on environmental science, climate, and physical geosciences and
some upper-level courses.

Interdisciplinary training in earth and environmental sciences, prior
teaching experience, and experience mentoring undergraduate research are
all valued. The person hired will be jointly appointed in the Environmental
Studies and the Geosciences Departments, with opportunities to be actively
engaged in these overlapping communities. The candidate will have access to
conference travel funding and internal funding to support their own
research and engage student researchers. Successful applicants will have a
PhD in a field related to environmental science and/or geosciences
(although applicants who are ABD at the time of application will be
considered).

This is an exciting time to be joining the ES and GEOS departments at
Wellesley. In spring 2022, Wellesley College is opening a newly renovated
science center, which will include state-of-the-art laboratories,
innovative teaching spaces, and the new Frost Center for the Environment,
an interdisciplinary hub focused on creating an inclusive and dynamic space
for the study of the environment.

Wellesley is a highly selective liberal arts college for women, dedicated
to building a diverse and inclusive academic community. We
strongly encourage applications from candidates who can demonstrate through
their teaching, research, and service that they can contribute to
this goal. Familiarity with, and experience using, pedagogical methods that
enable students across all racial, ethnic, and socio-economic groups
to reach their maximum potential will be considered a valuable additional
qualification. Wellesley College is located twelve miles west of Boston in
Wellesley, Massachusetts.

Applications should include a cover letter addressed to Professors Jay
Turner and Dan Brabander, a curriculum vitae, graduate school transcript
(an unofficial copy is fine), a teaching statement and evidence of teaching
effectiveness (such as teaching evaluations or a teaching portfolio), and
three references. PhD required by time of employment. Materials should
be submitted through the online application system at
https://career.wellesley.edu. Review of applications will begin on March
1st, 2021 and continue until the position is filled.

Wellesley College is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer, and
we are committed to increasing the diversity of the college community and
the curriculum. Candidates who believe they can contribute to that goal are
encouraged to apply.
