Best, Elizabeth De Santo Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies Franklin & Marshall College *FRANKLIN & MARSHALL COLLEGE* *Environmental Studies* The Franklin & Marshall Department of Earth and Environment invites applications for a tenure-track appointment as Assistant Professor or Instructor of Environmental Studies, depending on qualifications, beginning in July 2016. We are particularly interested in applicants in environmental resources and management, with training in an environmentally relevant social science field of geography, political science, public policy, or other closely related disciplines. The candidate should have an active research program in an area of broad interest in a liberal arts college environment, such as energy, water, climate, food, sustainability, natural resource management, environmental justice, or development, but the department is seeking the strongest candidate in any environmental studies specialty that supplements departmental strengths. We seek applicants with an integrative understanding of concepts and methods from diverse social science disciplines, who take an interdisciplinary approach to society-environment interactions. The successful candidate will join a department comprised of both natural and social scientists in an interdisciplinary teaching and research environment. This position will teach the following undergraduate courses in the Environmental Studies major: a core introductory course, a mid-level environmental management course, a senior seminar for Environmental Studies majors, and mid- or upper-level courses in the applicant's specialty. Teaching will also include participation in the College's general education “Connections” program. Teaching load is 3/2. Applicants should possess or be close to completing a doctorate (or Ph. D.) Teaching experience and an ongoing program of scholarly research involving undergraduates where this is possible and appropriate are required. Pursuant to cultivating an inclusive college community the search committee will holistically assess the qualifications of each applicant. We will consider an individual’s record working with students and colleagues with diverse perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds. We will also consider experience overcoming or helping others overcome barriers to academic success. Application materials should be sent electronically to *apply.interfolio.com/29856 <http://apply.interfolio.com/29856>* and include letter of application, curriculum vitae, graduate and undergraduate transcripts, three letters of recommendation, teaching statement, research statement and teaching evaluations.
