Tenure-Track Positions in Geochemistry at McMaster University

School of Geography and Geology

The School of Geography and Geology at McMaster University invites
applications for two tenure track positions at the Assistant or Associate
Professor level beginning July 1, 2003.  The School has been undergoing
active faculty renewal with twelve new faculty hired in the last five years.

The successful applicants must hold a Ph.D. degree in Geology, Earth
Sciences, Geochemistry, or a closely related field. Candidates will be
expected to develop a strong externally funded research program and to have
a strong commitment to the teaching of geology and geochemistry courses at
both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Position #1 - Stable Isotope Geochemist

The School seeks an innovative earth scientist with an outstanding research
record in the application of isotopes to understand processes in the
environmental context, or the development of new and innovative isotopic
techniques for the investigation of the geosphere and particularly coupled
geological-biological processes.

Position #2 - Aqueous Geochemist

The School seeks an outstanding candidate from any field of aqueous
geochemistry; however we are particularly interested in process oriented
research with direct linkages to surface water and groundwater quality,
environmental contaminants, and/or Environment and Health. ()

One appointment with an outstanding research record will be selected to be
nominated for a Tier II Canada Research Chair and if successful will be
appointed at the Assistant or Associate Professor level. Canada Research
Chairs are open to all qualified candidates with łno immigration
restrictions˛ (see  )  and offers will be made in accordance with Canadian
immigration requirements associated with the Canada Research Chairs program.

All qualified applicants are encouraged to apply; however for the non-CRC
position, Canadians and Permanent Residents will be considered first.
McMaster University is strongly committed to employment equity within its
community, and to recruiting a diverse faculty and staff, including women,
members of visible minorities, Aboriginal persons, members of sexual
minorities, and persons with disabilities.

Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research interest,
and a statement of teaching philosophy along with contact information for
three referees (address, phone number and e-mail).   Your cover letter
should indicate to which position you are applying.  The evaluation of
candidates will begin on December 1, 2002 and will continue until the
positions are filled.
