This post will reinforce and extend existing research and teaching in the interdisciplinary field of Water Sciences, specifically strengthening and complementing existing capacities in areas such as: quantitative methods in integrated water resource and water quality management, hydrological processes and modelling, water pollution and sediment transport, environmental sensing, ecohydrology, remote sensing - Earth Observation, advanced methods in Geographical Information Systems (GIS), socio-hydrology and water governance.
The School of Geography, Earth & Environmental Sciences continues to grow in terms of infrastructure and facilities. Over the next few years, we seek to take advantage of potential to further both our research and teaching activities with the expansion of the University’s Dubai campus, occupancy of the Molecular Sciences building (deepening our environmental links with chemistry) and continued development of unique facilities such as the Birmingham Institute of Forest Research (BIFoR), the Air Quality Supersites, and the Environmental Change Outdoor Laboratory (EcoLab).
The post holder is expected to extend the existing research strengths of the School drawing where possible from close interactions with private (water companies, environmental consultancies, (re)insurance companies), agriculture and forestry) or public sectors (DEFRA, EA). We seek individuals who can engage with challenge-led research, for example, addressing the UN Sustainable Development Goals and /or developing industry-facing solutions in relation to water resources, water pollution and supply, insurance/risk or infrastructure pressures. We are looking for interdisciplinary water researchers with expertise in areas such as large data analysis, sensor network design and application, numerical model development, method integration and data fusion, risk and impact analysis, that complement existing core research strengths in GEES, e.g. hydrometeorological extremes, emerging and legacy water pollution, climate change, river networks & sediment transport.
Applicants are encouraged to utilise and extend the existing strong links within the School as well as across the College and beyond. We particularly encourage applicants with an interdisciplinary research profile and a comprehensive background in multi-disciplinary teaching across the physical and environmental sciences.
Applicants must also demonstrate their ability to deliver excellent teaching and learning at all levels. The role will support delivery of our Geography undergraduate and masters programmes, including the MSc in River Environments and their Management, and will include delivery of lectures, workshops, field course teaching, dissertation supervision and tutorials, alongside associated assessment and marking.
