My department at the University of Maryland seeks to fill two positions in the near future. One, rank open, in evolutionary biology, and the other a tenured position for an ecologist who will direct the graduate program that I now direct. It's a friendly department, already has a few married couples, and we just opened a new wing on our building. The advertisement should be out in Science on 2 November.
David Inouye TENURE-TRACK FACULTY POSITION UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND TITLE: Associate Professor or Professor (tenure track) RESPONSIBILITIES The Department of Biology at the University of Maryland, College Park, is seeking to hire an Ecologist at the Associate or Full professor level. Candidates will be expected to have an outstanding research program addressing questions of broad significance in ecology or conservation biology using empirical, experimental and/or theoretical approaches. The successful candidate will teach within her/his area of research expertise within our Ph.D. programs and will direct the high profile Sustainable Development and Conservation Biology (CONS) M.S. program within the College of Chemical and Life Sciences. Significant instructional and administrative support will be available to facilitate operation of the CONS program ( <http://www.chemlife.umd.edu/cons>www.chemlife.umd.edu/cons ) so that the Director can maintain a vibrant and productive research program.
