2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: "de Silva, Shanaka L" <Shanaka.deSilva@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, I wanted to draw your attention to a recently posted advertisement for a tenure track position in Volcanology in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at Oregon State University, at the assistant or associate professor level. Please see the posting below as well as more details at https://jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/171177. Oregon, along with the rest of the Pacific Northwest, is a fantastic natural laboratory for studying volcanic systems, and together with colleagues <https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/geosphere>, the active VIPER <https://blogs.oregonstate.edu/viper/> group, and excellent facilities <https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/analytical-facilities> for studying volcanic and magmatic system, the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at OSU offers tremendous opportunities for research and collaboration. The position has a full consideration date of 1st September 2025, and closes fully on the 15th of September 2025. *___________________* *The College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences invites applications for a full-time (1.00 FTE), 12-month, tenure-track, Assistant or Associate Professor of Volcanology position.*Appointment at the assistant professor rank is anticipated; however, appointment at a promoted rank may be considered depending upon the qualifications of the successful candidate. Any hiring at the rank of Associate Professor with indefinite tenure will be subject to a successful out-of-cycle tenure review process: *https://facultyaffairs.oregonstate.edu/out-cycle-tenure-review-procedure* <https://facultyaffairs.oregonstate.edu/out-cycle-tenure-review-procedure>. The duties of this position in the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences (CEOAS) include teaching, research, and service. This position will serve as a Volcanologist and will complement and expand current expertise in volcanology, igneous petrology and economic resources within the Geology and Geophysics discipline group ( *https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/research/gg* <https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/research/gg>) while integrating field data and observations with analytical, experimental and/or modeling techniques to understand processes relating to petrology and geochemistry of volcanic rocks, eruption processes, geologic hazards, and geothermal and mineral resources. Potential areas of expertise include but are not limited to volcanology in oceanic or terrestrial settings, subduction zone systems, and volcanic hazards assessment. The incumbent will demonstrate capabilities and/or high potential for teaching and research excellence that will inspire the next generation of geoscience students and early career researchers. This includes 1) creatively contributing to teaching undergraduate courses in volcanology and other subjects such as petrology, petrography, and hazards, as well as graduate courses in areas of specialty; 2) building an international reputation in research in volcanology and a strong externally funded research program; 3) supervising graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, providing mentorship and guidance in their academic and professional development; and 4) contributing to on-going college- and university-wide efforts to improve diversity, equity and inclusion ( *https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/dei* <https://ceoas.oregonstate.edu/dei>). Oregon State University (OSU) and the College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences are committed to maintaining and enhancing its collaborative and inclusive community that strives for equity, and equal opportunity. All OSU faculty members are responsible for helping to ensure that these goals are achieved. CEOAS faculty are expected to demonstrate a commitment to diversity and inclusion across all their duties, including efforts promoting equitable outcomes among learners of diverse and underrepresented identity groups. The College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences is an internationally recognized leader in the study of the Earth as an integrated system. It operates numerous state-of-the art laboratories, two oceanographic research vessels and several national facilities and centers. The College has an annual research expenditure budget of more than $80 million, with support coming from the National Science Foundation, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Department of Energy, and other federal agencies. It has approximately 100 faculty, 200 graduate students and 800 undergraduate students. Graduate programs include M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences; Geology; and Geography and an M.S. degree in Marine Resource Management. The college offers undergraduate degrees in Geology, Oceanography, Climate Science, Geography and Geospatial Sciences, and Environmental Sciences as well as several minors and certificate programs. Oregon State University lies amidst a wealth of volcanological features related to diverse tectonic settings (subduction, ocean-ridge spreading, seamounts, flood basalt and continental extension), attracting researchers of all levels to the region and with active collaborations with nearby universities and colleges and the U.S. Geological Survey. 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ------------------------------
