The University of Maine
This is a full-time (9 month/academic-year) tenure-track position in the Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Conservation Biology.
We are especially interested in applicants who apply innovative approaches that will complement the department's current strengths in wildlife research and foster integrative approaches to complex problems requiring applied solutions. Collaborations with other ecologists on or off campus, including with state or federal agencies are expected. The faculty appointment for this position is 50% research and 50% teaching; teaching responsibilities will include primary instruction for undergraduate courses in wildlife conservation and endangered species, a graduate course in restoration ecology, involvement in existing field ecology courses, participation in courses addressing conservation of biological diversity at the undergraduate and graduate level, and other responsibilities consistent with departmental and college needs. The faculty member is expected to have a strong interest in education, advise and mentor undergraduate students, recruit and train graduate students, serve on departmental, college, and university committees, be active in professional societies, and be committed to the Land Grant University missions of teaching, research, outreach, and public service.
QUALIFICATIONS: A Ph.D. is required by date of hire in a relevant area of Wildlife Ecology, Conservation Biology, or Applied Ecology, along with training and research experience in restoration and human influences on habitats and ecosystems from a wildlife perspective. A proven track record of conducting high-quality scientific research, as evidenced by publications in peer-reviewed journals, is required. Other measures of potential for success, such as prior success in obtaining funding, college level instruction, professional presentations, mentoring, and interdisciplinary collaboration are desirable.
