Tenure-track Faculty Position in 
Computational Geophysics  
Department of Physics
New Mexico State University

The Department of Physics at New Mexico State University invites 
applications for a tenure-track position in Computational 
Geophysics. The appointment will be at the level of Assistant or 
Associate Professor depending on the candidate's qualifications. 
Our particular interests are complexity in physical processes and 
robustness in complex physical systems. Priority will be given to 
candidates who apply nonlinear dynamics to geological problems. 
However, other research areas related to geophysics and other 
departmental programs (http://www.physics.nmsu.edu) will also be 
considered. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in geophysics, physics 
or a related area at the time of appointment, and a significant 
record of research productivity. The successful candidate will be 
expected to complement the existing programs in tectonics, 
seismology and mineral physics, develop a vigorous, externally 
funded research program and teach physics and geophysics courses 
at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Opportunities for 
collaboration and joint support are available at the many 
research institutions in New Mexico, including Los Alamos 
National Laboratory and the Santa Fe Institute. Applicants should 
send a letter of application, curriculum vitae, statements of 
teaching philosophy and research interests, and the names and 
contact information of at least three references to Chair of 
Computational Physics and Geophysics Search Committee, Department 
of Physics MSC 3D, New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, NM 
88003.  The review of applications will begin December 21, 2004 
and will continue until the position is filled. New Mexico State 
University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. 
Minorities and women are encouraged to apply.
