Good morning all,

In case this looks interesting to you, check out the Geology and Env.
Science Dept. at James Madison University department and courses to see
what they might be looking for in people to "work collaboratively across
disciplines to develop undergraduate curricula and research programs at the*
intersection of data science, climate science, and environmental analytics.*"
One position may be a postdoc position.

See below:

Good afternoon all,



The College of Science and Mathematics at James Madison University,
Harrisonburg, VA, is conducting a cohort search for 4 faculty positions
broadly focused on Environment Data Science. Details and link to the job ad
are listed below.



Cheers – Steve Whitmeyer



Steven J. Whitmeyer

Associate Dean, College of Science and Mathematics

Professor, Geology and Environmental Science

James Madison University





James Madison University (JMU) invites applications for Phase 2 of an
exciting collaborative environmental data science (EDS) cohort hire. The
cohort hires will consist of four tenure-track faculty at rank of assistant
or associate professor who will work collaboratively across disciplines to
develop undergraduate curricula and research programs at the intersection
of data science, climate science, and environmental analytics. One or more
of the four positions could be teacher-scholar post-doctoral appointments.
Successful candidates will possess the expertise, creative ability,
interdisciplinary problem-solving skills, and team-oriented work ethic to
establish JMU as a home for environmental data science curricula and
research. Given that many of the challenges facing the environment
differentially affect particular populations of humans, a critical
component of this cohort would be the integration of social justice into
curricula and research initiatives.



Successful candidates will have primary appointments in an academic unit
most aligned with their disciplinary focus. These include Biology,
Chemistry and Biochemistry, Geology and Environmental Science, Mathematics
and Statistics, and Physics and Astronomy in the College of Science and
Mathematics <https://www.jmu.edu/csm/index.shtml> (CSM), as well as
Computer Science, Engineering, Geography, and Integrated Science and
Technology in the College of Integrated Science and Engineering
<https://www.jmu.edu/cise/index.shtml> (CISE). At least two of the
appointments will be in the academic unit of Mathematics and Statistics and
would be involved in the development of a data science program at JMU.
Phase 2 EDS hires will join three faculty who joined JMU in 2022
