the fall semester, teach either a non-majors course or an advanced seminar during the spring
semester, and supervise undergraduate research at the marine lab during the summer and academic
year. Bowdoin’s Marine Lab is located at the Coastal Studies Center on Orr’s Island, 20 minutes from
campus, and offers access to a boat and excellent wet laboratory facilities with a high-capacity,
flowing-seawater system. The Center includes 118 acres of forests and fields with 2.5 miles of
marine shoreline. Other research instrumentation available for use on campus. The annual stipend
for this benefits-eligible position is $50,000. Applicants must have received, or anticipate receiving,
a Ph.D. between September 1, 2007 and September 1, 2013.
