LPL Faculty Position in Planetary Science

The Department of Planetary Sciences/Lunar and Planetary Laboratory (LPL) at the University of Arizona seeks to fill a tenure-track faculty position. Candidates in all areas of planetary science are encouraged to apply. The faculty, research staff, and graduate student body draw from multiple sub-disciplines in planetary science including geology, physics, chemistry, engineering, and astronomy. Ongoing research at LPL includes multi-scale studies of the solar system, planetary formation, exoplanets, and ionospheres and magnetospheres, and employs a diverse set of tools including theoretical modeling, field investigation, and ground- and space-based observations. In addition, LPL is involved in both active and planned missions, as well as instrument development. These research activities are enabled by advanced computing resources, internal engineering support, space-qualified laboratory space, and access to a global network of world-class telescopes.  Additional information concerning the Department/Laboratory is available at http://lpl.arizona.edu.
