Post-Doctoral Position at Texas A&M

Postdoctoral Researcher in Numerical Simulations of Earthquake Rupture Dynamics and Ground Motion at Texas A&M university

The department of Geology & Geophysics at Texas A&M University invites applications for a postdoctoral position in numerical simulations of earthquake rupture dynamics and ground motion. The position is available immediately and some flexibility to starting date for competent candidates is possible. The successful applicant will work on current and upcoming research projects in earthquake rupture dynamics and near-field ground motion prediction. Depending on funding and the researcher's interests, other projects might be pursued secondarily. A Ph.D. is required at appointment. Experience in scientific programming is required. Knowledge of earthquake rupture dynamics is desirable. The appointment will be initially for one year and will be renewable depending on funding and performance. The salary will be commensurate with experience and performance. Interested candidates should send an application to Dr. Duan at bduan@tamu.edu.

Application should include (1) a resume or CV, (2) a statement of research interests and experience, (3) an electronic copy of a representative publishable or published work, and (4) names and contact information of three references. Review of complete application begins immediately and will continue until a qualified and motivated candidate is identified. Texas A&M is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer and Educator.
