TWO FACULTY POSITIONS Ecology and Evolution
The Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications for two full-time tenure-track faculty appointments, one in Ecology and one in Evolution, pending budgetary approval. Appointments are anticipated to begin in September 2011 continuing our goal of establishing a broad-based interactive community of scientific researchers. We encourage all candidates working on cutting edge questions incorporating the topics of ecology, evolution, or behavior and using animal, plant or microbial systems.
We anticipate making both appointments at the ASSISTANT PROFESSOR level. The successful candidates must have a Ph.D. and extensive postdoctoral experience and will be expected to establish extramurally funded research programs, train graduate students, and actively participate in undergraduate education and research. To ensure full consideration, applications should be received by November 1, 2010. Applicants should email a single PDF document identifying the position they would like to be considered for in the subject line and containing a curriculum vitae, a statement of research accomplishments and goals, and a brief description of teaching interests to <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]. In addition, applicants should arrange to have at least three letters of reference sent to <mailto:[email protected]>[email protected] as a PDF document with signature.
