Marine Fisheries Science – Quantative
The Department of Life Sciences at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi is accepting applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor with a start date of September 1, 2013.

Review of applications will begin 15 November 2012. The position will remain open until filled.

Preference will be given to applicants with expertise in quantitative aspects of fisheries science with emphasis on larval/early life stages of economically important finfish and/or invertebrates. Successful applicants will be expected to demonstrate their potential to develop a vigorous, externally-funded research program. Other responsibilities will include graduate student supervision and teaching of undergraduate and graduate courses supporting the Department of Life Sciences B.S. and M.S. programs, and the joint Interdisciplinary Doctoral Program in Marine Biology.

On-line applications should be submitted electronically to the TAMUCC employment opportunities website (https://islanderjobs.tamucc.edu).
