The Department of Geological Sciences and Engineering (DGSE) invites applications for a tenure-track Associate or Assistant Professorship in Geological Engineering (GE). We offer BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Geology, Geophysics, Hydrogeology (interdisciplinary graduate program), and Geological Engineering (Geo-engineering PhD). Applicants must have a PhD and demonstrate commitment to both undergraduate and graduate instruction in the GE program as well as development of an externally-funded program of research in their specialty. Preference will be given to candidates who have at least one degree in Geological, Civil, or Environmental Engineering, with a specialization that strengthens our GE program. The undergraduate degree program in GE is ABET-accredited and the position requires assisting in the ongoing accreditation process and in continued development of the educational objectives of the GE program. The position also requires the ability to teach courses within the GE curriculum which demonstrate the relationship between geology and engineering. The applicant’s resume should reflect the ability to fit into a quality GE program within a department that combines the geosciences and engineering. Although not required of applicants, successful completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering exam or professional engineering registration will be advantageous.

Additional information is available in the job posting, and applications must be submitted online, https://nshe.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UNR-external,  reference R0113744.  Please include an application letter briefly addressing how your research and teaching experience meets the criteria set forth above.  A CV, Statement of Research Interests, Teaching Philosophy, and contact details for at least three references are required.
