TECTONICIST - QUEEN'S UNIVERSITY AT KINGSTON, ONTARIO (CANADA)
The Department of Geological Sciences & Geological Engineering, Queen's
University, invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in the
field of integrated quantitative neotectonics and paleotectonics. The
position is part of the Ontario Research Centres in Earthquake Hazards
and Continental Dynamics, a network involving also the University of
Western Ontario and Carleton University and the Ontario Challenge Fund.
This post relates to the theme, 'integrated analysis and modelling of
continental dynamics', which will foster full integration of geological
knowledge with geophysical monitoring developments in the province
(www.polarisnet.ca). Hence the successful candidate will be a geologist
who can combine a sound understanding of regional/global tectonics
with inferences drawn from geomechanical and geophysical techniques,
and thus can contribute to practical advances in natural hazard mitigation
and mineral resource discovery.
The holder of the position will be expected to teach at the undergraduate
and graduate levels, to develop a vigorous program of high quality,
externally funded research, and to supervise graduate students at the
M.Sc. and Ph.D. levels. Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in an appropriate
field and demonstrate research excellence by a successful record of
peer-reviewed publication.
All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority. The University is committed to
employment equity and welcomes applications from all qualified women
and men, including visible minorities, aboriginal people, persons with
disabilities, gay men, and lesbians.
Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, statements of research and
teaching interests, and samples of research writing to the following
address. Arrangements should also be made for at least three letters of
reference to be forwarded to the same address. Review of completed
applications will begin on 20 September, 2002.
