<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Ecologist, Ecological Modeler, &
Fisheries Stock Assessment:</b> The Department of
Oceanography and Coastal Sciences (DOCS) within the College of
the Coast and the Environment at Louisiana State University
(LSU) is seeking outstanding applicants to fill up to 3
tenure- track faculty positions. Successful candidates must
possess a Ph.D. within their discipline and a strong record of
research accomplishments and publications, or the capacity to
build the same in the case of emerging scholars. A history or
potential to attract extramural funding and to work with
interdisciplinary teams that include doctoral students,
post-docs, and research associates is expected. An individual
candidate may apply for a position in one or more of the three
core areas listed below: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u>Fisheries Stock Assessment Scientist
(Assistant or Associate Professor):
</u>Seeking candidates from the fisheries sciences including
expertise in stock assessment, computational ecology,
population dynamics modeling, quantitative fisheries science,
mathematics, and/or statistics. A successful candidate will be
expected to use quantitative approaches to study fish
population dynamics and to advance the science of fisheries
stock assessment. He/she must be capable of
teaching/developing a course in stock assessment in support of
the Graduate Certificate in Fisheries Science and Assessment
offered by DOCS and the LSU Graduate School. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u>Ecological Modeler (Assistant
Professor): </u>Seeking candidates that use mathematical
and simulation methods for understanding and predicting
population, multispecies, community, and food web dynamics,
including classical and agent-based approaches. We encourage
applications from those who combine modeling and empirical
research that may extend to coastal, estuarine, and/or marine
fish population ecology and trophic dynamics.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u>Ecologist (Assistant Professor):</u>
Seeking candidates from academic backgrounds in ecology,
including, but not limited to feeding relationships,
environmental drivers, resource supply and demand and
population, community and ecosystem level processes.
Candidates who conduct empirical research related to spatial
management, coastal, estuarine or marine ecosystem dynamics at
spatial scales ranging from estuaries to the deep ocean are
encouraged to apply. Duties of the positions include
developing and maintaining a rigorous, externally-funded
research program in the related area of discipline; teaching
courses in a relevant area of specialty and courses based on
departmental needs; collaborating on multidisciplinary
research projects; mentoring graduate and undergraduate
students and providing service to DOCS, LSU, and the State of
Louisiana.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Minimum Qualifications: Ph.D. in science
field. Preferred Qualifications: Ph.D. in fishery science,
quantitative ecology, marine science, or related field.
Postdoctoral experience is encouraged. Please provide three
professional references including name, title, phone number
and e-mail address. Attach a Statement of Research and
Statement of Teaching on your application. Applications that
arrive before March 31 will get full consideration.
