Detailed description below:
The Department of Earth Sciences in the School of Ocean and Earth Science
and Technology (SOEST), University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa seeks to fill a
tenure-track faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor in marine
geophysics. We are interested in candidates whose research addresses
questions related to active plate margins (e.g., subduction zones,
mid-ocean ridges, oceanic transforms), geohazards, ocean islands, or
processes regulating plate tectonics using marine geophysical methods,
including, but not limited to, active or passive seismology or
electromagnetism, seafloor geodesy, or seafloor cables/DAS. We are
particularly interested in candidates who are excited to build a global
seagoing research program, and who can leverage our unique location and
marine research facilities to develop research and educational foci
relevant to Pacific communities. The candidate will build on existing
departmental expertise in geophysics, volcanology, coastal processes, and
hydrology, and will have opportunities to interact with other research
units and organizations across SOEST and the University of Hawaiʻi, as well
as with local agencies such as the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, and
the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. The successful applicant is expected to
establish an externally funded and internationally recognized research
program, contribute to graduate and undergraduate advising and teaching,
and carry out professional service activities. The successful candidate
will demonstrate a commitment to faculty performance that aligns with the
goals of Mānoa 2025 (manoa.hawaii.edu/strategicplan/), which include
becoming a Native Hawaiian Place of Learning, enhancing student success,
achieving excellence in research, and building a sustainable and resilient
campus environment.
