Colleagues,
I am delighted to announce that the College of Social Sciences and Humanities at Northeastern University has launched a cluster hire search in Environment! I am the chair of the search committee and glad to connect if you are interested!
We seek to recruit a cohort of outstanding faculty who are engaged in studying and developing innovative and transformative responses to anthropogenic environmental disruptions and climate change in areas such as environmental governance and diplomacy; security and resilience; displacement; biodiversity conservation and ecological integrity; indigenous conceptions of nature and the environment; social, religious, and cultural practices; ethnic, regional, and international conflict; health; technological innovation; and economics. The college is particularly interested in scholars whose work contributes to environmental justice. We encourage diverse methodologies that range across qualitative or quantitative approaches, including digital humanities and computational techniques.
We are seeking colleagues at ALL levels and they will have a tenure home in one department within the College of Social Sciences and Humanities and may have a joint appointment either within or outside of the college, depending on area of expertise. Interdisciplinary area(s) of interest may include environmental ethics, environmental sociology, environmental humanities, science technology studies, environmental policy, urban/spatial planning, environmental health, and environmental economics. We are also interested in colleagues who will work together with partners within the university as well as partners outside of academia.
