Job Title:

Associate or Full Professor in Volcanology or Petrology and ERI Director

Job Description:

The University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) invites applications for a tenured faculty position in volcanology or petrology (broadly defined) at the rank of Associate or Full Professor, who would also serve as the Director of the Earth Research Institute (ERI).

We seek applicants whose records are commensurate with that of an associate or full professor with tenure, who are passionate about teaching and mentorship of diverse undergraduate and graduate students, and whose research interests complement existing strengths in the Department of Earth Science and across campus.

The successful candidate is expected to lead, promote, and advance the research enterprise of ERI across a broad front of activities, while continuing their own, extramurally funded research program, mentoring graduate and undergraduate students, participating in ongoing graduate and undergraduate teaching programs, and contributing to other university service and professional activities.

UCSB is particularly interested in applicants who have made and continue to make significant contributions to Earth science and have demonstrated successful leadership and development skills.

The Director will hold a tenured faculty position in the Department of Earth Science at UC Santa Barbara. The appointment as ERI Director is for five years, and is renewable for additional five-year periods. Further information about ERI is available at https://www.erisci.org/.

The University is especially interested in candidates who will contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community through research, teaching, and service as appropriate to the position.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values at UC Santa Barbara. Our excellence can only be fully realized by faculty, students, and staff who share our commitment to these values.

In, UC Santa Barbara departments are partnering with the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to launch a special faculty recruitment initiative named after Benjamin Banneker, the 18th-century African American mathematician, astronomer, antiracist, engineer, ecologist, and peace advocate.

Funded by an Advancing Faculty Diversity grant from the UC Office of the President, the Banneker Initiative will recruit scholars, scientists, and engineers whose disciplinary and interdisciplinary work would take place within the community of concerns exemplified by Banneker's intellectual, ethical, and social commitments as an African American scientist, especially his desire to advance scientific and humanistic knowledge for the public good.

The community of Banneker Fellows will receive funding for cohort building and professional development activities, including enrollment in the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity Faculty Success Program, proposal writing training, and seed grants.

Further information about the Banneker Initiative can be found here.

The Department of Earth Science at UC Santa Barbara is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive community of scholars, and we welcome applications from candidates who will contribute to this goal.

The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the department's teaching, research, and service missions, and to participate in departmental and university service activities.

The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age or protected veteran status.
