who are graduating this spring may be interested.

*********Faculty Position in Energy and Environment*********
The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) seeks outstanding candidates
for a tenure-track faculty position in the field of Energy and Environment,
focusing on energy policy and technology. The appointment will begin effective
July 1, 2010. The position is nominally at the rank of Assistant Professor,
although appointment at a higher level may be considered. Candidates should be
capable in quantitative analytic methods via fields such as the social
sciences, natural and applied sciences, engineering and other appropriate
disciplines and have a demonstrated capacity to work on energy policy issues.
We are particularly interested in someone capable of working on issues of
energy and climate change mitigation. Possible areas of expertise include
scientific analysis and/or modeling of current and future energy pathways
(including fossil fuels, nuclear, biofuels, and renewables), energy policy and
sustainability, energy and greenhouse gas emissions, energy linkages with air
quality or water resource issues, energy conservation, advanced energy
management systems, and technological innovation.
The appointment will be in the UCLA Institute of the Environment
(
www.environment.ucla.edu), a dynamic and growing interdisciplinary center
within UCLA representing faculty in the health sciences, life sciences,
physical sciences, social sciences, engineering, law and other disciplines.
Affiliations with other campus units are possible, and encouraged.
A Ph.D. degree is required for eligibility. A strong commitment to
interdisciplinary research is highly desirable, as may be shown by relevant
postdoctoral experience and publications. The successful candidate will have
demonstrated the ability to secure external funding. Prior engagement in
service to increase participation in science or engineering by groups
historically under-represented in these fields is also highly desirable.
Please use job number:
2155-0910-01 in all correspondence. Applicants can
submit application materials as WORD or PDF files online to
energyposition@ioe.ucla.edu including a cover letter, curriculum vita,
statements of research, teaching and interdisciplinary experience and
interests, three exemplary publications, and the names and contact information
for four references.
For additional questions about submitting an application, contact Ms. Eileen
Sir, Manager of the UCLA Institute of the Environment, at
esir@ioe.ucla.edu,
310-825-6999. Applications submitted by January 1, 2010 will receive full
consideration, as will later applications as time allows. Inquires about the
position should be directed to Professor Glen M. MacDonald, Director, UCLA
Institute of the Environment,
macdonald@ioe.ucla.edu. Women and minority
applicants are encouraged to apply; UCLA is an affirmative action/equal
opportunity employer with a strong institutional commitment to the achievement
of faculty and staff diversity.
