The Department of Earth Sciences is seeking a geoscientist for a tenure-track faculty position starting Fall 2025, with a broadly defined emphasis on subduction zone science. The successful applicant will conduct innovative work on the processes that define active tectonic provinces or that are associated with geohazards in subduction zones. This could include earthquakes and faulting, volcanism, petrology and geochemistry, surface processes, structural geology, mantle geodynamics, and marine science. The position will emphasize data-driven science via sensor systems (e.g., remote, terrestrial, satellite, or airborne), laboratory measurements, field work, and model development. Transdisciplinary collaboration with a wide array of partners and community members is valued, both for fundamental science as well as for work applied to connecting science to meaningful social impacts. We seek a creative colleague who will develop a vigorous, externally funded research program, teach new and existing undergraduate and graduate courses, and work to advance diversity, equity, and inclusion in the geosciences. Inquiries about the position can be directed to search committee chair Leif Karlstrom (leif@uoregon.edu).
