[Geoinfo] Fwd: Postdoc Fellowships at ASU - SESE

[Patricia Alvarado]

>


The School of Earth and Space Exploration (SESE) at Arizona State
University invites applications for the Exploration Postdoctoral Fellowship
Program (http://sese.asu.edu/**opportunities<http://sese.asu.edu/opportunities>).
This program provides opportunities for postdoctoral research on
cutting-edge topics with an emphasis on inter-disciplinary collaboration.
Research areas within SESE encompass theoretical and observational
astronomy, cosmology, astrobiology, earth sciences, climate science,
planetary sciences, exploration systems engineering, astronomical
instrumentation and science education.

Applications must include a brief research proposal that has been discussed
with two prospective faculty mentors at ASU. Potential research topics span
the full range of research interests of our faculty,
http://sese.asu.edu/focus_**areas <http://sese.asu.edu/focus_areas>. When a
topic of mutual interest is identified, the applicant will prepare and
submit a 5-8 page research proposal.

The complete application packet includes: (1) a cover letter identifying
(a) research topic, (b) prospective postdoctoral advisors, and (c) a list
of 3 references with contact information, (2) a current CV, (3) 2-3 papers
exemplifying the applicant’s research, (4) letters of endorsement from the
prospective postdoctoral advisors, and (5) the research proposal.
Preference will be given to proposals that fuse research conducted through
multiple focus areas within SESE and that involve new collaborations among
our faculty. Please request that your referees submit a letter of
recommendation via email (exppd en asu.edu) to the Exploration Fellowship
Program Committee by January 5, 2012.

We expect to make 2 awards this year with salary ($50k/yr) and full
benefits. Standard appointments are for 2 years, renewable for a 3rd year
contingent on performance and funding availability. Typically appointments
will start between July 1 and September 1, 2012.

Application materials (and any questions) should be submitted by email to
exppd en asu.edu, addressed to the Exploration Fellowship Program Committee.
Complete applications are due by December 31, 2011. Letters of
recommendation from 3 references must be submitted by January 5, 2012.
Evaluation of applications will begin January 1, 2012 and decisions will be
announced in early February.

ASU is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that actively seeks
diversity among applicants and promotes a diverse workforce.
