Dear all
The Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at University of California, Riverside is seeking applicants for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in Economic Geology, broadly defined. We seek expertise in economic geology, critical minerals, hydrothermal geochemistry, or related fields at the interface between Earth and Planetary sciences and mineral resources. We encourage a wide range of related fields to apply! Do not self-select out. If in doubt, reach out, and/or apply.
EPS has 22 full-time faculty members with diverse research programs. We have a range of resources, including extensive analytical laboratories used for elemental and isotopic characterization of geological materials that is expanding as part of a recently funded Critical Minerals Analytical Training Center. We are also centrally located near major historical and active sites in the mineral and energy resources industry.
Riverside is in southern California, within close driving distance to Los Angeles, San Diego, Mexico, the Pacific Ocean, National Parks - Death Valley, Joshua Tree, and the Channel Islands (by boat), the Sierra Nevada mountains, the Sonoran Desert and the Mojave Desert. There is unrivaled access for a wide range of interests. Riverside also offers affordable housing in a diverse and strong community.
The application window is open now: https://aprecruit.ucr.edu/JPF01981 . Application review will begin January 6th, 2025. I am the chair of the search - please reach out directly with questions (mbrounce@ucr.edu mailto:mbrounce@ucr.edu). I will be at the upcoming Geological Society of America Connects meeting in Anaheim, CA and would be happy to meet interested parties.

Dear colleagues,
Apologies for multiple postings.
The Spring 2025 American Chemical Society (ACS) Meeting will be held in San Diego, CA from March 23 to 27, 2025. Abstracts are accepted until September 30, 2024, through the ACS website: https://callforabstracts.acs.org/acsspring2025/GEOChttps://urldefense.us/v3/__https:/urldefense.us/v2/url?u=https-3A__callforabstracts.acs.org_acsspring2025_GEOC&d=DwMFAg&c=v4IIwRuZAmwupIjowmMWUmLasxPEgYsgNI-O7C4ViYc&r=tofI8DpgW5YSqX2gxcFvpQ&m=GcSruLytQcMW_Y1JH6y3h_pDp9Jnh0WbwlDu9Sa8oG4U_-GKYCfOjRWK0VS1goEP&s=q1cJndoVNp9WEXWu_g0ni1PNg7OL8c0xjtteNnsha6Q&e=__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!ZJdGFi06WJPQJybDhn1FOEh1AAf797h5HzXzCwd95k_t52CfD8cHkim8bYivBIeiaq6u47QZoIzz$
Late submission may be possible after the due date. Please contact the Program Chairs, Sang Soo Lee and Ian C. Bourg, by email (sslee@anl.govmailto:sslee@anl.gov and bourg@princeton.edumailto:bourg@princeton.edu) for inquiry.
The Division also accepts applications for the Student Travel Award and Early Career Scientist Travel Award for the Spring Meeting. Each award includes the registration waiver, $200 stipend, and extended time allocation for oral presentation. The applications are due October 11, 2024, and should be sent to the program chair of the meeting, Sang Soo Lee, by email at sslee@anl.govmailto:sslee@anl.gov.
The Geochemistry Division will host twelve symposia listed below. Please find details on the ACS-GEOC website: https://www.acsgeoc.org/news/geoc-acs-fall-2021-y8x3c-27bpa-79xck-32zdx-5blxm
