The School of Marine Science and Policy (SMSP) seeks to hire a marine
biologist at the rank of Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) focused on
conservation and management of marine resources. Specific areas of interest
may include larger-scale organisms and issues (e.g., population–global
scales) such as fisheries oceanography, marine ecology (e.g., molecular
physiology, quantitative/theoretical ecology, population dynamics),
biomechanics/functional morphology, and aquaculture. The preferred
candidate will bring cutting-edge approaches that are relevant to
international, federal, and state management agencies as well as industry
and NGOs that complement existing strengths in aquatic biology within SMSP
and UD more broadly.

The successful candidate will contribute to the undergraduate and graduate
teaching mission of SMSP by teaching courses in their area of expertise, as
well as marine population biology, conservation, and fisheries. The
successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain a robust
externally funded research program, support graduate students, and
contribute to interdisciplinary research activities and School service. The
School offers graduate programs in Marine Biosciences, Oceanography,
Physical Ocean Science & Engineering, and Marine Policy, as well as an
undergraduate major in Marine Science with Marine Bioscience and
Oceanography tracks. The School has facilities on the main campus in
Newark, and the coastal campus in Lewes offers convenient access to a
variety of coastal and estuarine environments in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The School has active seagoing facilities, ranging from small boats to
regional class vessels.

A PhD (or equivalent) is required, as well as a record of postdoctoral
experience in marine biology, ecology, or other related fields. Successful
candidates are expected to have demonstrated excellence in research and a
dedicated interest in high-quality teaching at both the undergraduate and
graduate levels.

Applicants should upload a cover letter, curriculum vitae, contact
information for three references, and statements of research, teaching, and
diversity. Inquiries regarding this position may be addressed to Professor
Mark Warner (mwarner at udel.edu). Review of applications will begin on
December 1, 2024 and will continue until the position is filled. Salary is
competitive and commensurate with qualifications, and a start-up package is
available.
