FACULTY POSITION
THE COLORADO COLLEGE
The Department of Geology invites applications for a tenure track position
beginning in August 2005. Field and rank are open, but appointment at the
rank of Assistant Professor is strongly preferred. A Ph.D. is required.
We seek outstanding candidates who will complement but not duplicate
existing strengths in geomorphology, glacial geology, sedimentation,
stratigraphy, low-temperature geochemistry, petrology, and structural
geology.
Teaching responsibilities will include: field-based Introductory Geology;
courses in the candidate's areas of expertise; and undergraduate research
mentoring. Ability to establish a research program is essential.
Interaction with the Environmental Sciences program and participation in
the college's interdisciplinary programs is desirable.
Applicants must be committed to high-quality innovative undergraduate
teaching, including field-oriented courses. Colorado College is a private
liberal arts college distinctive for its modular ''Block Plan'' calendar,
which lends itself to field- and project-based teaching. The academic year
is divided into eight 3-1/2 week blocks. Students take and faculty teach
one course at a time, with a maximum enrollment of 25 students per class.
The College supports faculty research through release time and summer
grants. The Department has six tenure-track faculty and four staff
positions, a large group of dedicated majors, and excellent field,
laboratory, and computer facilities for teaching and research.
The successful candidate will support and contribute to the goal of
achieving greater diversity at Colorado College, and will be able to work
effectively with the many constituencies in a college environment.
Candidates are encouraged to apply and identify their strengths or
experiences in contributing to greater diversity. More information about
