Assistant Professor in Hydrogeophysics, Louisiana State University
|
The Department of Geology and Geophysics at Louisiana State University invites applications for a tenure-track Hydrogeophysicist at the level of Assistant Professor. We seek either a geophysicist who works on water-related topics or a hydrogeologist who uses geophysical methods. The research focus area may include a broad range of earth and/or planetary settings. Collaborative opportunities at LSU include the College of Science, College of Engineering, College of Coast and the Environment, and the Energy Institute. LSU’s Center for Computation and Technology offers powerful platforms for research with a substantial computational component.
|
Successful candidates will be expected to establish and maintain a vigorous, independent extramurally funded research program and to contribute to undergraduate and graduate teaching in the area of their expertise. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Hydrology, Hydrogeology, Geophysics, Earth Science, or related field at the time of appointment. Postdoctoral experience and a record of successful independent research is preferred. Applicants should submit their cover letter, Curriculum Vitae, statements of research and teaching interests, and three references who can provide letters of recommendation at a future date. After submission, applicants should fill in the subsequent screening questionnaire to complete their application.

The Department of Geology & Geophysics offers programs leading to B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees with over 20 faculty (https://www.lsu.edu/science/geology/index.php. The department is housed in the LSU College of Science and maintains research programs in geology, igneous and metamorphic petrology, geophysics, geochemistry, hydrology, mineralogy, palynology, paleoclimatology, earth and planetary materials, and earth and planetary surface processes. The successful applicant will complement these existing strengths. Numerous opportunities are available for collaboration with other departments on campus, including those in the College of Science, College of Engineering, College of Coast and the Environment, and the newly established Energy Institute. LSU is a Carnegie Doctoral/Research R1 University, and a Land-, Sea- and Space-Grant University. LSU is the flagship school of the state of Louisiana, as well as the flagship institution of the Louisiana State University System.

[SZ4D] REMINDER: 2027 Chile & Argentina Field Trip - Apply by Nov 2
|
|
One week left to apply for the 2027 SZNet Chile & Argentina Field Trip
|
Application Deadline: November 2, 2026
|
Join an international team of scientists for a 10-day field trip across the Southern Central Andes, exploring the links between the latitudinal transition from normal to flat-slab subduction and surface hazards.
|
The field trip will compare two complementary transects across the Andes, from the Principal Cordillera near Santiago in Chile to Mendoza in Argentina. Field activities will focus on active and potentially active faults, volcanism and hydrothermal systems, landslides and other mass movements, glacial and geomorphic features, and evidence of tectonic deformation.

** Open to scientists across career stages and disciplines**
|
We are seeking participants across disciplines and career stages who are interested in developing international collaborations and contributing to interdisciplinary research on subduction zone geohazards. The group will bring together scientists with diverse perspectives and expertise to investigate the connections between tectonics, volcanism, landscape evolution, and surface hazards.
|
Participants will be expected to contribute to field data collection and analysis during and after the trip, with opportunities to develop new research ideas, collaborations, and scientific products.
|
- Dates: March 5–14, 2027
- March 5: Arrival in Santiago, Chile
- March 6-13: Field Component, Southern Central Andes, Chile & Argentina
- March 14: Departure from Mendoza, Argentina
- Application deadline: November 2, 2026
Participants should be prepared for long days outdoors, travel through remote areas with limited services, variable weather conditions, elevations up to ~3,000 m (9,840 ft), long-distance vehicle travel, including mountain and unpaved roads, walking on uneven and potentially steep terrain.
|
The itinerary includes an international border crossing from Chile to Argentina. Participants are responsible for ensuring they have the appropriate travel documents and meet all border-crossing requirements.
|
Participant travel, food, lodging, and selected field supplies will be supported through SZNet, with funding provided by the National Science Foundation’s AccelNet program under Award No. 2301732.
|
International airfare, accommodations, and meals will be arranged through the SZ4D Office.
