FACULTY POSITIONS IN ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY at the University of California, Irvine

The Department of Chemistry at the University of California, Irvine (Irvine, California) has two openings for outstanding scientists in atmospheric chemistry at the Full Professor level. These positions are part of an integrated, across-campus initiative in air quality and climate.  We seek to build this initiative through cross-cutting and transformative research programs that complement existing activities at UCI, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary activities and those that combine fundamental laboratory research with field observations, theory and modeling.  Areas of particular interest include particles and their roles in air quality and climate.  Candidates must have a PhD in Chemistry or a related field and a demonstrated record of accomplishments in atmospheric chemistry. The position requires both the establishment of a vigorous research program and a strong commitment to excellence in teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.  Applications must be submitted electronically via the Internet at: http://recruit.ap.uci.edu/apply/JPF02661.  Applicants should upload a cover letter, a curriculum vita (including a publication list), and a concise statement of proposed research.  A separate statement that addresses past and/or potential contributions to diversity, equity and inclusion should also be included in the application materials.  Names and contact information for three references must be provided; letters should not be requested at this time.   Applications and supporting materials should be received by December 31, 2014 for full consideration.  The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer advancing inclusive excellence.  All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, age, protected veteran status, or other protected categories covered by the UC nondiscrimination policy.
