The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at The University of Manchester seeks an experienced, high quality candidate for a Chair in Geophysics who is already an established and leading scientist. A broad range of Geophysics expertise will be considered, including, for example, quantification and interpretation of sub-surface structures using geophysical methods, or application of InSAR techniques to examine surface processes or deep Earth core/mantle boundary processes. There is the potential for a joint appointment with our Department of Physics for candidates who bridge between physics and geophysics.
You will be expected to undertake teaching on the undergraduate/MSc Earth and Planetary Science, and Environmental Science pathways and conduct a programme of research which will enhance and complement the School’s existing research strengths.
Applicants must have a BEng or BSc (Hons) or equivalent in Geophysics, Physics, Earth Science or a related subject and hold a PhD in Earth Science or a related subject.
Further criteria for the position are listed in the further particulars of the post.
