[Proflist] Tenure Track Faculty Position, University of Nebraska-Lincoln

[Mark Anderson]

Faculty Position in Meteorology: The Department of Geosciences at the 
University of Nebraska-Lincoln seeks candidates for a tenure-track 
Assistant Professor in Meteorology to begin August 13, 2007. This hire 
is one component of a broader initiative within the 
Meteorology/Climatology program to study meteorological hazards and 
climate change.  The linchpin of this initiative is the addition of 
several new faculty hires, especially in the areas of: 1) mesoscale 
meteorology, 2) hydrometeorology, and 3) boundary layer meteorology.  We 
are therefore seeking applicants with expertise in one or more of these 
three areas. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a 
vigorous research program and to provide quality teaching and advising, 
as well as curriculum development, at the undergraduate and graduate 
levels. A Ph.D. in Atmospheric Science or a closely related discipline 
at the time of appointment is required. Female and ethnic candidates are 
especially urged to apply.

The Meteorology/Climatology program along with Geology, Paleontology, 
and Hydrological Sciences serve as the four primary units within the 
Department of Geosciences.  The department offers a B.S. degree in 
Meteorology/Climatology and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Geosciences with 
specializations in Meteorology/Climatology. Additional information on 
the Meteorology Program can be found on our Web site:
http://geosciences.unl.edu.

To apply, go to http://employment.unl.edu requisition 060927 and 
complete the "faculty/administrative form". Applicants must submit a 
cover letter, curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching 
interests, and names of a least three references via the above website. 
We also ask that all applicants request their references to send letters 
via email directly to the Chair of the Search Committee at: 
roglesby2 at unl.edu.   We will begin to review applications on December 
15, but the position will remain open until it is filled.
