MINERAL RESOURCES
UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA ANCHORAGE
The Department of Geological Sciences at the
University of Alaska Anchorage (www.uaa.alaska.
edu/geology/) seeks to hire two tenure-track fac-
ulty members (open rank), with a start date of
August 2019. We aim to expand and complement
existing areas of research expertise in the Depart-
ment which include geochemistry, structural
geology, sedimentology, stratigraphy, petroleum
geology, geophysics, hydrogeology, and planetary
geology. The successful candidates are expected
to teach undergraduate and graduate courses to a
diverse student body in the B.S. and M.S. programs
in geological sciences.
(1) Igneous/Metamorphic Petrology and/or Vol-
canology: Teaching expectations for this position
include igneous & metamorphic petrology, vol-
canology, geological field methods or field camp,
advanced petrology, and other courses in support
of the Department’s teaching needs.
(2) Mineral Resources and/or Economic Geol-
ogy: We encourage applications from individuals
with expertise in one or more of the following
areas: economic geology; mining geology; mineral
resources in magmatic, hydrothermal, and/or
placer deposits; structure and emplacement of ore
deposits; or mineral exploration. Teaching expec-
tations for this position include mineralogy, ore
deposits, geological field methods or field camp,
advanced mineral resources, and other courses in
support of the Department’s teaching needs.
We seek applicants with a commitment to
teaching, research, and partnership building with
resource industries and research organizations
in Alaska and elsewhere. Successful candidates
must develop externally funded research that
actively involves graduate and undergraduate
students. Both positions require a Ph.D. in geologi-
cal sciences or a related field at the time of initial
appointment, university teaching experience or
potential, and demonstration of research experience
and future potential. Relevant industry or post-doc-
toral experience will be considered favorably.
Please submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae,
a statement of teaching and research interests that
includes how you will involve students in research
opportunities, contact information for at least three
references, and unofficial academic transcripts to
careers.alaska.edu for: (1) posting 509521 (petrol-
ogy or volcanology); or (2) posting 509519 (min-
eral resources). Review of applications will begin
September 24, 2018.
