Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) at the University of California San Diego (http://scripps.ucsd.edu) invites applications for an Associate or Full Professor position with a research focus on ocean acoustics. Of interest are all aspects of acoustics in the ocean including but not limited to: marine physics and the measurement of sound propagation underwater including interaction with the boundaries, the sources and spatial/temporal structure of ambient sound, the application of innovative computational approaches to acoustic data collected at-sea, and acoustic sensing technology development. The successful candidate also will be expected to contribute to teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels in the SIO Department. Preferred candidates will have experience in developing and maintaining an innovative sea-going research program that would be expected of a faculty member. The successful candidate will have demonstrated teaching excellence, and/or leadership, meaningful engagement in student mentorship and commitment to student development in both undergraduate and graduate students.
