Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:"TimesNewRomanPSMT"">The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary
Sciences (EAPS), is seeking applicants for a faculty position focused on the connection of geological systems to
global climate and (sustainable) energy. This position encompasses a wide scope of disciplines, including but not
limited to fluid-rock reactions, the carbon and water cycles, as well as processes related to critical minerals. Our
intent is to hire at the tenure-track assistant professor level. More senior appointments may be considered in special
cases, commensurate with experience. We seek to build on MIT’s recent strategic emphasis on climate and the
launch (with the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, CEE) of our new undergraduate degree in
Climate System Science and Engineering. This search complements and will be coordinated with a parallel search
focused on climate systems.
