1. Faculty - Computational Geosciences

The School of Computational Science at the Florida State University invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in the broadly defined area of Computational Geosciences. The position, to start August 2006, will be filled at the assistant professor level and tenure-earning status will be in the Department of Geological Sciences.

The School seeks candidates who are developing new computational tools for the geosciences, utilize a computer-based approach to solve geological problems, and are interested in interdisciplinary research. The area of research interest within geosciences is not restricted. Areas such as surface processes (including surface hydrology), geophysics (including seismology), biogeochemical modeling, basin and reservoir analyses, and others will be considered.

Faculty and students are housed in the Dirac Science Library building and have free access to two powerful IBM supercomputers and a top of the line visualization laboratory. Excellent opportunities for collaboration exist with many other centers, institutes, and departments on the FSU campus. The Dirac Science Library is in close proximity to the departments of Geological Sciences, Oceanography, Meteorology, Physics, Statistics, Mathematics, and the institutes of Geophysical Fluid Dynamics and Molecular Biology.

Those interested in being considered for the position should apply electronically to
