experience before going on job market.

The Boston College Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences is looking
for an instructor for an upper level Marine Geology course. for fall
semester 2016. I would greatly appreciate it if you would forward the
following information to post docs, advanced graduate students (ABD), or
others you think might be interested and qualified. The course description
that is currently 'on the books' is included below, although the instructor
has flexibility in course content and format.

Anyone interested or wanting more information should contact me (

EESC5530 Marine Geology (typical enrollment ~ 10-15 students; upper level
elective – junior, senior geoscience majors and masters grad students)


meeting times: To Be Arranged

prerequisite: EESC1132 or equivalent, calculus and physics recommended



The ocean basins are explored through examination of recent geological and
geophysical information concentrating on three areas: (1) structure of the
earth, plate tectonics, and composition of the ocean basins; (2)
geophysical processes responsible for the structure and evolution of the
ocean basins; and (3) marine sedimentation including sediment transport,
pleistocene sedimentation and global climate change. Sedimentological and
geophysical investigation techniques are emphasized.
