The Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry (MC&G) Department at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) invites applications for one or more faculty position in ocean biogeochemical modeling. The full-time exempt tenure track positions will be located at WHOI in Woods Hole, Massachusetts.

The positions will be hired at the Assistant Scientist level, however, exceptional candidates considered at Associate Scientist without Tenure, Associate Scientist with Tenure, or Senior Scientist levels.

The successful candidate will conduct research in ocean biogeochemical modeling including theoretical, computational, and observational (e.g. remote sensing) approaches. This hire will complement existing programs on the chemistry of the ocean and its interactions with the Earth as a whole. Although the search will focus on ocean biogeochemical modeling, the Department will consider exceptional applications in other core areas.

Applicants should have a doctoral degree, preferably postdoctoral experience, and a record of scientific research publications in scholarly journals. Scientific staff members are expected to develop independent, externally-funded, and internationally-recognized research programs and have the option of advising graduate students and teaching courses through the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)/WHOI Joint Program in Oceanography and Oceanographic Engineering (http://mit.whoi.edu/).

Applications must be submitted online and include the following as a single PDF document:

  • A cover letter,
  • A curriculum vitae,
  • A three-page research statement,
  • Names of four references, and
  • Copies of up to three relevant publications.
