Two open rank positions climate change positions - University of Oregon Envl Studies This year, the University of Oregon is hiring a cluster of 11 tenure line faculty with a focus on the environment, most with a focus on climate change and/or environmental justice. You can find the entire list here: https://environment.uoregon.edu/career In particular, the Environmental Studies Program has two Open Rank positions focused on climate change mitigation and adaptation -- one in social science and one in natural science. Social Science https://careers.uoregon.edu/en-us/job/529966/assistant-associate-full-professor-of-environmental-studies-social-science We seek an interdisciplinary environmental social scientist (open rank) with expertise in climate change mitigation and adaptation. We are particularly interested in candidates whose scholarship is focused on social, political and/or economic solutions for climatically-vulnerable populations. We are open to candidates who work at any or multiple social-ecological scale(s) and in any social-ecological system, although candidates’ research should be relevant to climate change related challenges such as wildfire, drought, extreme weather, ecosystem change and/or social vulnerabilities in the American West. Research areas should have direct relevance to underrepresented and vulnerable populations. We are particularly interested in candidates who have a track record of engaging in sponsored research and are committed to leading transdisciplinary research teams to conduct innovative research with potential for societal impact. We seek candidates who engage in teaching that addresses current climate-related issues, that offers innovative pedagogy, and/or that links to existing ENVS experiential learning, such as the Environmental Leadership Program. Natural Science https://careers.uoregon.edu/en-us/job/529965/assistant-associate-full-professor-of-environmental-studies-natural-science We seek an interdisciplinary environmental natural scientist (open rank) with expertise in climate change mitigation and adaptation. Successful candidates will have a strong record of collaborative research focused on climate change related challenges such as land-use or ecosystem change, wildfire, water resources and drought, and extreme weather. We are open to candidates who work at any social-ecological scale(s) and in any social-ecological system. Research areas should be directly relevant for underrepresented and vulnerable communities, broadly defined. These topics could be approached through the lenses of environmental science, coupled socio-ecological systems, or mitigation of climate impact on people and ecosystems systems. We are particularly interested in candidates who are committed to collaborative scholarship and leading transdisciplinary research teams at the UO and beyond that include biophysical, social scientists, and humanists to conduct innovative research with potential for societal impact. We seek candidates who engage in teaching that addresses current climate-related issues, that offers innovative and inclusive pedagogy, and/or that links to existing ENVS experiential learning, such as the Environmental Leadership Program. Both of these positions are part of an eleven-position cluster in transdisciplinary research and teaching in climate solutions and environmental justice. The position will be integrated with the newly formed Environment Initiative, an area of strategic investment at the University of Oregon (https://environment.uoregon.edu/). The Environment Initiative focuses the intellectual energy and work of faculty, students, and community partners on working towards a just and livable future through transdisciplinary research, teaching, and experiential learning. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.
