The Department of Ecosystem Science and Sustainability at Colorado State University, Fort Collins is recruiting a tenure-track faculty member at the rank of ASSISTANT PROFESSOR in ecosystem science with biogeochemistry and sustainability expertise, with an expected start date the beginning of fall 2019 Semester. We seek candidates with expertise related to (but not restricted to) land-use change and ecosystem services of global systems, human-modified and managed landscapes, or social-ecological systems. The research foci can encompass small-scale mechanism to larger, integrative global processes. Research approaches could include (not limited to) trace gas and/or biogeochemical processes, use of stable isotopes, large data sets, molecular microbial tools, modeling, experiments, and inter- or trans-disciplinary studies. Applicants should be interested in working in a highly collaborative department and enthusiastic about teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels, while contributing to the land grant mission of Colorado State University. Teaching responsibilities will include courses in ecosystem ecology and biogeochemistry. We envision an independent researcher who will develop a strong, extramurally-funded research program. The department of ESS has a commitment to actively contributing to developing a diverse and inclusive environment within the department, college, and university, and will expect the candidate to contribute to this vision.
