Regardless of research focus, we wish to hire an outstanding scientist who will thrive in an interdisciplinary department with hydrologists, ecologists and geoscientists. In addition to developing external funding to support research endeavors, candidates will be expected to teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels, including the teaching of our undergraduate core course for majors (EVSC 3300), and provide service to the University, Department and professional organizations. Review of applications will begin November 25, 2013. The appointment start date will begin August 25, 2014. Applicants must be on track to receive a Ph.D. in the relevant field by May 2014 and must hold a PhD at the time of appointment. To apply candidates must submit a Candidate Profile through Jobs@UVa (<https://jobs.virginia.edu/>)**, search on posting number 0612794 and electronically attach the following: a cover letter of interest describing research agenda and teaching experience, a curriculum vitae, sample publications submitted as writing sample 1, and contact information for three references.
