Job Description:
Oregon State University is searching for five collaboratively-minded faculty with an enthusiasm for research and teaching at the interface between the life or environmental sciences and the quantitative or physical sciences. Appointees will be expected to develop independent and collaborative grant-funded research programs, at levels of scale from the molecular to the ecological. The research, teaching, and extension programs of the appointees are expected to integrate student success, and diversity and inclusion, as core values. This search is part of a large cohort of new faculty hires at OSU focused on interdisciplinary research, on advancement of diversity, and on advancing and equalizing student success. Women and minority candidates are strongly encouraged to apply. To review the full position announcements, qualifications and detailed application information for any of these positions, go to http://oregonstate.edu/jobs and select the relevant posting number. COMPLEX SYSTEMS IN THE LIFE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES Two assistant professor (9 month) positions are available in any domain where the life or environmental sciences intersect with the quantitative or physical sciences. Complex systems in the life and environmental sciences span numerous levels of scale from metabolites, macromolecules, cells, tissues, and organisms, to populations, communities and ecosystems. Increasingly, understanding these systems requires interdisciplinary collaborative research at the intersection with quantitative or physical sciences. Each appointment will reside jointly in a life or environmental sciences unit, and in a physical or quantitative sciences unit, depending on the appointee’s expertise and interest.
