The School of Environment and Sustainability (SEaS; https://www.artsci.uc.edu/departments/seas.html) at the University of Cincinnati (UC; https://www.uc.edu) invites applications for an Associate or Full Professor with administrative experience to become its inaugural director, a position equivalent to department chair. Environmental scholars and researchers from a wide variety of disciplinary backgrounds will be considered.

SEaS is the recently created unit home to the successful Environmental Studies BS and BA, as well as two minors, making SEaS home to more than 300 undergraduate students. SEaS brings together expertise in the Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities to create a transdisciplinary approach to environmental problem solving through collaborative research, in the classroom and in the community. Current SEaS faculty hold joint appointments in departments including Anthropology, Biological Sciences, English, History, Geosciences, and Philosophy. The SEaS Director will report to the Divisional Dean of Social Sciences in the College of Arts & Sciences.
