Teaching loads are the equivalent of four courses per semester. Although the area of expertise is open, we are seeking an individual with a strong background in general forestry, who can teach courses with both lecture and field components and at all levels in our undergraduate forestry program.  Preference will be given to candidates who can teach or co-teach, at a minimum, the following courses: Introduction to Forestry, Forest Measurements, Watershed & Recreation Management, Forest Planning, and Forest Management. Depending on qualifications, teaching one or more courses in the area of wildland fire ecology and management is a possibility. Teaching responsibilities may also include online or hybrid (online and in-person) courses.

Research and other forms of scholarly activity are not an expectation for this position, and release time will not be allocated for them.

  • A record of college- or university-level teaching, or teaching assistant experience.
  • Expertise in both quantitative and ecological applications of forestry.
