ASSISTANT PROFESSOR IN PALEONTOLOGY

The Department of Geology, University of California, Davis, invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in paleontology, at the Assistant Professor level.  We seek an outstanding vertebrate or invertebrate paleontologist asking questions of broad importance, using quantitative, rigorous methodologies, whose interests and expertise complement those of existing faculty.  Our exceptional program in geology, together with the tremendous depth and breadth of related sciences across campus (Evolution and Ecology, Environmental Science and Policy, and Population Biology, to name a few), make UCD particularly attractive for paleontological research.  The successful candidate will be expected to develop an independent, productive research program, advise graduate students, and contribute to our undergraduate and graduate teaching program in paleontology.  Candidates should possess the Ph.D. or equivalent degree in the geological sciences or a closely related field at the time of appointment; post-doctoral experience is desirable, but not required.  For additional information about the department, see our web page http://www.geology.ucdavis.edu.

Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research and teaching interests, and names, addresses, phone numbers and e-mail addresses of at least three people who can be contacted for recommendations to:
