14px;">The Geosciences Department at Williams
College invites applications for a tenure-track
appointment in the broad field of climate
science, at the rank of Assistant Professor,
beginning 1 July 2018. We seek a colleague
committed to excellence in undergraduate
teaching, who will provide a balance of
classroom, field, and laboratory experiences for
our students, and develop a vibrant and
productive research program that engages
undergraduates. We are particularly interested
in candidates who take an interdisciplinary
approach to climate science, and who will be
likely to develop research and teaching
collaborations across departmental boundaries.</p>
<p style="border: 0px none; margin: 0px 0px 10px;
padding: 0px; color: rgb(55, 55, 55); font-size:
14px;">The successful candidate will teach three
courses per year (lectures plus labs). Teaching
responsibilities are likely to include an
introductory course in weather and climate, as
well as higher-level courses based on the
candidate’s interests. Examples of such courses
include, but are not limited to: climate system
analysis and prediction; physical climatology;
climate and society; hydroclimatology; applied
climatology; climate engineering; climate
dynamics; economics of climate change;
statistical analysis of climatologic data;
GIS/remote sensing; environmental management;
climate and policy; cryosphere-climate
interaction; or energy and the environment.
Faculty have broad latitude in developing their
own courses and we welcome ideas from candidates
for ways in which they might develop courses
that would cross traditional disciplinary lines
and build dynamic intellectual bridges between
Geosciences and other departments.</p>
