Please visit Assistant Professor in Behavioral Ecology for complete job posting and application instructions.
The Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor position for a Behavioral Ecologist. We are seeking highly collaborative candidates with expertise in the study of behavior of any non-model multi-cellular organism; although we encourage those applicants with expertise in entomology, mammalogy, and other non-aquatic vertebrates.
The anticipated appointment date is fall 2022. The successful candidate is expected to (1) establish an extramurally funded research program; (2) teach and mentor undergraduate, masters, and doctoral students; and (3) have a strong potential for collaboration across ecology and evolutionary biology (EEB). Finally, UTEP is committed to expanding diversity among its faculty and staff, and strongly encourages candidates to apply who will enrich UTEP’s academic and culturally inclusive environment.
Requirements:
Applicants must have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree, postdoctoral research experience, and a strong record of research accomplishments.
Questions about the position can be directed to Dr. Phillip Lavretsky plavretsky@utep.edu
As a reminder, the UTEP Biodiversity Collections have excellent collections in entomology, paleobiology and malacology, providing the potential for candidates to take on important curatorial roles
