>>

The Department of Geology and Geophysics at Texas A&M University
invites applications from individuals for two tenure-track faculty
positions as assistant professors in (a) Siliciclastic
Sedimentology/Stratigraphy and (b) Reflection Seismology. Both
positions begin September 2012.

Siliciclastic Sedimentology/Stratigraphy — We seek candidates who will
develop an externally-funded research program in the general area of
Siliciclastic Sedimentology/Stratigraphy. This includes but is not
limited to one or more of the following research topics: sequence
stratigraphy, the sedimentary record of long-term climate change,
depositional processes, and diagenesis. We seek applicants with strong
potential to collaborate with current faculty as well as potential to
interact with the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program and the
Berg-Hughes Center for Sedimentary and Petroleum Systems, both of
which are housed within the College of Geosciences at Texas A&M.

Reflection Seismology — The successful applicant will establish an
active, innovative research program while complementing current
departmental strengths in petroleum geology and geophysics,
sedimentology, stratigraphy, and structural geology and will
participate actively in the Berg-Hughes Center for Petroleum and
Sedimentary Systems.

Applicants for both positions must have a Ph.D. at the time of
appointment. Post-doctoral research and teaching experience are
desirable for each position. Successful applicants will be expected to
teach effectively at the undergraduate and graduate levels in their
specialty, including classes in the Petroleum Certificate curriculum;
supervise undergraduate, M.S. and Ph.D. research, including students
who are interested in pursuing careers in the petroleum industry. Each
candidate is expected to initiate and maintain a vigorous, externally
funded research program. Opportunities exist to participate in and
build on collaborative programs with colleagues in the College of
Geosciences, Petroleum Engineering, and elsewhere at Texas A&M
University.

Interested candidates should submit electronic versions of a
curriculum vita, statement of research interests and teaching
philosophy, the names and email addresses of at least three
references, and up to four reprints by email attachments, to either
the Chair of the Sedimentology Search Committee
(sedsearch en geos.tamu.edu) or Chair of the Reflection Seismology Search
Committee (seissearch en geos.tamu.edu). Screening of applications for
both positions will begin November 1, 2011 and will continue until the
positions are filled. The Department of Geology and Geophysics
(geoweb.tamu.edu) is part of the College of Geosciences, which also
includes the Departments of Atmospheric Sciences, Geography, and,
seefOceanography and Sea Grant, the Geochemical and Environmental
Research Group (GERG), and the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program
(IODP). Texas A&M University, a land-, sea-, and space-grant
university, is located in a metropolitan area with a dynamic and
international community of 172,000 people. Texas A&M University is an
affirmative action/equal opportunity employer committed to excellence
through the recruitment and retention of a diverse faculty and student
