Global Water Initiative Position Posting

Michigan State University Department of Anthropology invites applications
for a tenure-system position in Sociocultural Anthropology at the assistant
professor level. The appointment will begin August 16, 2014. We seek an
anthropologist specializing in Gender, Environment, and Water Resources.
Possible areas of focus could include environmental governance, health,
climate change, or conflict and social mobilization. Candidates should
consider the intersection of gender with other inequalities. Geographic area
is open. Candidates will be expected to have an active research program in
their area of focus with demonstrated ability to obtain funding for their
research.

This is a position located 75% in the Anthropology Department and 25% in the
Environmental Science and Policy Program (ESPP). Candidates must be willing
to work collaboratively and between disciplines; participation in MSU’s
Water Initiative via ESPP is expected. Candidates must also be committed to
both undergraduate and graduate education, and must display evidence of
excellence in research. Extramural funding of research is expected at MSU.

The position is part of MSU’s Global Water Initiative (water.msu.edu), an
effort to mobilize research expertise across the campus to address the
world’s most compelling water issues.  With over 100 faculty members already
working in water-related disciplines, the university has expertise spanning
academic units within the natural, social, and engineering sciences.  Over
the next few years, the MSU Global Water Initiative will coordinate
recruitment of 16 new faculty researchers across the disciplinary spectrum.
New hires will collaborate with current faculty to enhance disciplinary
expertise, strengthen linkages across disciplines, and create new advances
in water science, technology, and policy.

A Ph.D. in anthropology is required by date of appointment. Women,
minorities, and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
Applications should include a cover letter including statement of research
and teaching interests, CV, names and email addresses of three references.
Send up to three publications or manuscripts to Annette Werner at
werner15@msu.edu. Electronic submission is required and materials should be
uploaded at the MSU website at https://jobs.msu.edu. The closing date for
applications is October 18, 2013, or until the position is filled. Questions
regarding this position can be addressed to the Search Committee Chair, Dr.
Laurie Medina at medina@msu.edu.

Michigan State University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity
Employer. MSU is committed to achieving excellence through a diverse
workforce and inclusive culture that encourages all people to reach their
full potential. The University actively encourages applications and/or
nominations of women, persons of color, veterans and persons with
