Tenure-Track Professor in Paleobiology, Geobiology, and Earth History

The Departments of Organismic & Evolutionary Biology (OEB) and Earth & Planetary Sciences (EPS)—in partnership with the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ)—invite applications for two tenure-track faculty positions spanning the broadly defined fields of paleobiology, geobiology, and Earth history. They seek to attract two outstanding individuals to establish innovative research programs and teach both undergraduate and graduate students. We are especially interested in individuals whose work spans the intellectual interests of the OEB and EPS departments, including paleontology and/or the interactions between life, evolution, (bio)geochemistry, and the environment over geologic time, either on land or in the ocean. The positions may be associated with curatorial appointments in the MCZ with oversight responsibilities of the museum’s invertebrate paleontology collections.

Please submit applications online at: http://academicpositions.harvard.edu/postings/6418
Required materials include a cover letter, curriculum vita; a statement of research and teaching interests; four representative publications; and the names, institutional affiliations, and email addresses of three references. Review of applications will begin November 9, 2015, and conclude when the positions are filled.

Address questions about the position to Professor Ann Pearson (pearson@eps.harvard.edu) or Professor James Hanken (hanken@oeb.harvard.edu) and about the application process to Chenoweth Moffatt (moffatt@eps.harvard.edu).
