Posted: 6/18/2018 (Employment)
The Department of Geology and Geography invites nominations and applications for two Regular, Limited-Term Instructor of Geology positions. Both positions are located on the Statesboro campus.
In January 2017, the University System of Georgia Board of Regents voted to consolidate Armstrong State University and Georgia Southern University. The new, 27,000-student university will be named Georgia Southern University with campuses in Savannah, Statesboro, and Hinesville. The expected timeline for the first entering class will be fall 2018.
Within this setting, the Department offers undergraduate degree programs in both geology and geography and a graduate degree in Applied Geography. In addition, the minor in GIS attracts students from a range of disciplines.
Position Description. Reporting to the Department Chair, the limited-term instructor of Geology position will teach mostly introductory laboratory sections of Physical and Environmental Geology along with a possible lecture section of Physical or Environmental Geology. The limited-term instructor will also have some service duties in the department, which may include committee assignments, attendance at open house and recruiting events. All limited-term positions are non-tenure track, academic (9/10 month) year appointments. Appointments are for one year only, although there is the possibility of reappointment should funding permit and based upon satisfactory performance. (All reappointments are made on a one year basis.) The salary is competitive and commensurate with qualifications and experience.
