The Nicholas School of the Environment (NSOE) invites applications for tenure-track
positions at the Assistant Professor level in three areas: Coastal/Marine Climate
Change; Geochemistry of Earth-Water-Air Systems; and Spatial Ecology and
Ecosystem Management at the Landscape Scale. These positions are part of a cluster
hiring initiative focused on climate and contribute to Duke University's institution-
wide commitment to addressing climate change. We recognize that cluster hires can
promote intellectual synergy and provide support for new faculty from diverse
backgrounds. (Specifics of individual positions can be found at AcademicJobsOnline.)
We will consider joint appointments with other departments, institutes, and centers
at Duke University. Appointments at levels higher than Assistant Professor will be
considered in extraordinary cases.

We are strongly committed to diversification of our faculty, and to becoming an
inclusive, antiracist community. Examples of ongoing programming to promote these
values may be found at DEI Nicholas School and DEI Marine Lab.

We are a vibrant academic community with cutting-edge facilities located on our main
campus in Durham and at the Duke University Marine Laboratory in Beaufort, NC.

We support academic programs for undergraduates, professional master's, and PhD
students. Our interdisciplinary scholarship encompasses basic and applied research
in the physical, biological, and social sciences to address the complex environmental
challenges facing our society. We apply our research expertise to create solutions to
the most pressing environmental and climate justice issues facing our world. We
encourage and support innovative research interests and entrepreneurial efforts and
we are driven to translate these discoveries into new knowledge, technologies, and
solutions that benefit society.
