Overview

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Utah State University (USU) invites applications for a full-time, twelve-month research faculty position (non-tenure-track) at any level. The position is with the USU Bingham Research Center (binghamresearch.usu.edu<https://www.usu.edu/binghamresearch>) and the performance location is Vernal, Utah (dinoland.com<https://www.dinoland.com/>). The position begins in summer or fall 2023. Applicants should have a PhD in chemistry or a related discipline, with graduate, post-doctoral, or other experience in environmental chemistry, atmospheric science, industrial emissions, environmental modeling, or related fields.



The Bingham Research Center has ongoing, stable funding for research related to the atmospheric impacts of oil and gas development, wintertime ozone, and other air quality issues specific to eastern Utah. We expect applicants to demonstrate readiness to participate in these research areas, as well as an ability to develop an externally funded research program in areas of the applicant's choice. The Bingham Center focuses on the environmental impacts of energy development and the chemistry of all compartments of the environment. Applicants' research experience and plans should relate to these focuses.

Completed applications will be reviewed starting October 1, 2022. Applications will be considered until the position is filled.

Responsibilities

This is a full-time, twelve-month appointment with a 90:10 division of effort between research and service. Teaching opportunities may arise but are not guaranteed. The successful candidate will be expected; (i) to carry out high-quality research, including external research funding, which achieves a strong national reputation for excellence in the field and (ii) to engage effectively in service (for example, Departmental/College/University committee service and outreach to stakeholders in government, industry, and the public).

The Bingham Research Center's mission is to perform research that benefits the local community, residents of Utah, and the world. Research results generated by the Bingham Research Center are regularly used by stakeholders in local, state, and federal governments (including elected officials); native American tribes; the energy industry; environmental advocacy organizations; and the public. Outreach and relationship building with all of these these stakeholder groups, and involvement of diverse stakeholders in research planning and execution, will be a routine part of this position.

Student involvement is also critical to the Bingham Center's mission.  The successful applicant will mentor undergraduate and graduate students and involve students in research.



Applicants from groups underrepresented in the physical sciences are particularly encouraged to apply.
