Postdoctoral Position at Purdue University

Postdoctoral Position at Purdue University

The Geodynamics and Active Tectonics group at Purdue University (Dept. of Earth and Atmospheric Science) invites applications for a 12-month postdoctoral research position focused on the modeling of crustal and lithospheric deformation constrained by geodetic observations. The successful candidate will join a group of faculty and students working on continental deformation, plate coupling and stress transfer at plate boundaries, postseismic processes, rheology of the lithosphere, and mantle-lithosphere interactions. We are specifically interested in candidates with a strong background and experience in mechanics, modeling of tectonic processes, and inverse methods applied to geodetic data. Experience in GPS and/or InSAR is a plus. The position is to be filled immediately. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. Send an application electronically, consisting of (1) a letter of interest, (2) CV, and (3) the names of 3 references to ecalais@purdue.edu or freed@purdue.edu. Purdue University is an equal access/equal opportunity/affirmative action employer.
