University of Toronto Scarborough
The Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences at the University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC) invites applications for a full-time tenure stream position in the area of Geoscience focused on the history of the solid Earth and/or evolution of the cryosphere. The appointment will be at the rank of Assistant Professor with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2027.
Candidates must have earned a Ph.D. degree in Earth Science, Geology or a related geoscience discipline by the time of appointment, or shortly thereafter, with a demonstrated record of excellence in research and teaching in Geoscience. We seek candidates whose research and teaching interests complement and enhance our existing departmental strengths. The proposed position would add to the existing departmental research performed within the Environmental Sciences Geoscience group. Specific areas of expertise can include ancient and/or recent surface geology and processes (including Quaternary geology, glacial geology, periglacial environments, sedimentology and stratigraphy); solid Earth geology (including structural geology and tectonics); geospatial and analytical methods (e.g., imagery analysis); and resource geology (including mineral exploration, utilization of glaciated terrains, and geology related to Canada's resource sector).
We are especially interested in candidates with strong field-based research programs and a demonstrated ability to design and teach geological field camps appropriate to their teaching and research interests
