Dartmouth College - Assistant Professor in Geographic Information Sciences

NEW HAMPSHIRE, HANOVER 03755-3571. Dartmouth College (geography.dartmouth.edu) seeks an Assistant Professor in Geographic Information Sciences (GIS).  We seek individuals committed to creative scholarship and teaching who complement and augment the Geography Department's existing strengths in spatial analysis, critical urban studies, development geography, and environmental change.  We are especially interested in candidates who specialize in critical GIS and its applications to health, cities, or human-environment relations, but welcome applications from scholars whose research involves other geographic subfields.  Candidates should hold a Ph.D. or be in the final stages of a Ph.D. program. Please submit a letter of application that addresses research and teaching interests, curriculum vitae, up to three reprints, and names and contact information for three referees by 20 October 2017 via Interfolio (apply.interfolio.com/44016). Dartmouth undergraduate and graduate student populations are diverse by many measures. We are interested in applicants with a record of successful teaching and mentoring of students from all backgrounds (including first-generation college students, low-income students, racial and ethnic minorities, women, LGBTQ, etc.), and who could contribute to Dartmouth's undergraduate diversity initiatives in research, such as the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship. Dartmouth College is an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer with a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion.
