"DISCOVERY STARTS HERE"The University of Texas at Austin Marine Science Institute is experiencing exciting growth in its nationally and internationally recognized research programs and invites applications for two faculty positions in the Department of Marine Science. We seek leading innovative and productive scientists at the forefront of their disciplines to join our faculty and expanding programs. The positions, to be filled at tenured faculty ranks of Associate or Full Professor, will be in the areas of: Marine Chemical Ecology – The University of Texas Marine Science Institute invites applications for a tenured faculty position in the Department of Marine Science. We seek an innovative and eminent marine chemical ecologist at either the Associate Professor or Professor rank who will be eligible for the Mary Anderson Abell and Joseph Miles Abell, Jr., M.D. Endowed Chair in Marine Science, as a Chair Fellow or Holder, respectively. Areas of interest include laboratory and field methods to study intra- and interspecific chemical cues and signals of marine flora and fauna; elucidate chemical structures of cues and signals and their roles in ecosystem structure and function; and investigate the identities and mechanisms of xenobiotic disruption of chemical cues and signals in the marine environment. The successful applicant will be expected to establish an internationally recognized research program at the Institute, mentor graduate students and postdoctoral scientists, and teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels. We are interested in individuals who will contribute to diversity and equal opportunity in higher education through their teaching, research, and service. Apply through interfolio. Coastal Physical Oceanography – The University of Texas Marine Science Institute invites applications for a tenured faculty position in the Department of Marine Science. We seek an innovative and eminent physical oceanographer at the Associate Professor rank who will use field, remote sensing, and/or computational methods to study estuaries and coastal oceans. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: circulation and connectivity to watersheds and the open ocean, ocean-atmosphere interactions, mixing processes, sediment transport including quantitative geomorphology, and interdisciplinary studies that couple physical, biogeochemical and biotic processes in estuarine and coastal environments. The successful applicant will be expected to establish an internationally recognized research program at the Institute, mentor graduate students and postdoctoral scientists, and teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels. We are interested in individuals who will contribute to diversity and equal opportunity in higher education through their teaching, research, and service. Apply through interfolio.
