Faculty position at University of Hawaii at Manoa

University of Hawai‘i at Manoa and UH Sea Grant Partner to Promote Sustainability

Groundbreaking new initiative creates five new faculty positions to integrate marine science, economics, engineering, design, and policy

The University of Hawai‘i at Manoa (UHM), in partnership with the University of Hawai‘i Sea Grant College Program (UH Sea Grant), has taken an important step toward building a sustainable and economically and socially inclusive future for Hawai‘i and its people.

With support from the UHM Chancellor Virginia Hinshaw, UHM is currently seeking five tenure-track faculty to undertake a strategic inter-disciplinary initiative focused on marine coastal sustainability. All five faculty will have joint appointments with partnering disciplinary units at UHM (Architecture, Economics, Engineering, Microbial Oceanography and Urban and Regional Planning) at 0.75 FTE and in the University of Hawai‘i Sea Grant College Program at 0.25 FTE.

This initiative is aimed at synergizing research, teaching, and outreach to address important aspects of island life. In particular, the new faculty will build on and strengthen existing collaborations already created by the five UH Sea Grant Centers of Excellence.

Applications are now being accepted for four assistant-level and one associate/full-level tenure-track faculty. For complete position descriptions and contact information please visit:
