[ES_JOBS_NET] Assistant Professor position in Climate Physics and Mathematics, ATOC, Univ. of Colorado Boulder

[Alexandra Jahn]

The Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences (ATOC) at the University of Colorado Boulder invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in climate physics and mathematics to begin as early as August 2025, with the start date negotiable. We seek an outstanding candidate for a tenure-track faculty position in research areas that include observational, experimental, theoretical, and computational methods of studying the Earth’s climate system, including Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, cryosphere, and their interactions. Applications received by November 1, 2024 will receive full consideration, but the position will remain posted until filled.

The position is part of a cluster hire in the area of Climate Physics and Mathematics with linked positions in the Departments of Physics and the Department of Applied Mathematics. The Earth’s climate is affected by physical processes at work in the cryosphere, ocean, and atmosphere and the study of these processes involves a wide array of methods: observational, experimental, theoretical, and computational. Collaborations between physicists, mathematicians, and climate scientists are needed to make progress across many of the most challenging problems in climate science. CU Boulder is uniquely poised to rapidly become the leading institution in the world in the field of climate physics and mathematics. The campus already has the necessary foundation in place: CU Boulder is the only R1 university in the US with a group in the Physics Department dedicated to Geophysics; the Department of Applied Mathematics is similarly committed to the Earth sciences through its Mathematical Geosciences and Computational Mathematics groups; and the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences is one of the strongest atmospheric and oceanic sciences departments in the world.

It is expected that the new ATOC faculty member will have a role in building interdisciplinary climate physics and mathematics collaborations with the Departments of Physics and Applied Mathematics. They will also contribute to the new Interdisciplinary Climate Minor program through teaching, service, and mentorship of undergraduate students.
The University of Colorado Boulder is committed to building a culturally diverse community of faculty, staff, and students dedicated to contributing to an inclusive campus environment. We are an Equal Opportunity employer, including veterans and individuals with disabilities.
