[ES_JOBS_NET] Post-doc opportunity: equitable flood risk management, UNC-Chapel Hill

[Hino, Miyuki]

Dear all,
Dr. Antonia Sebastian and I are currently searching for a post-doc to work on a project analyzing (in)equity in flood exposure, mitigation funding, and recovery. This project is funded by the Department of Homeland Security’s Coastal Resilience Center, based at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

The post-doc is expected to conduct research on equity in flood and disaster risk in the US. Specifically, their research will examine how flood exposure, mitigation investments, and recovery funds are distributed across populations and geographies. They will be expected to contribute to several manuscripts through research design, data collection and analysis, writing, project management, and mentorship of students. Selected candidate will be able to engage with intellectual opportunities across UNC and, if desired, may also gain teaching experience.

The candidate must hold a PhD in environmental studies/sciences, geography, public policy, city and regional planning, engineering, or related discipline. Experience conducting research related to climate risks and/or adaptation is essential. Successful candidates will also demonstrate strong training in quantitative analysis and statistical approaches along with knowledge of research design.

The initial appointment will be for one year, with the possibility of extension. There is flexibility regarding location and remote work. The posting is open until July 14, but applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, so early applications are encouraged: https://unc.peopleadmin.com/postings/259032.

Best,
Miyuki Hino
