Senior Lecturer in Geological Data Science

Publicerad 2024-10-31

A Senior Lecturer in Geological Data Science is sought to support both research and teaching in the Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of Manchester.

The Department of Earth and Environmental Science at University of Manchester has an international reputation for research in Earth and Planetary Science, especially in sedimentary basins, crustal and deep mantle processes, geomechanics and fluid-rock reaction. We consistently deliver internationally leading research, research impact and teaching, with a strong focus on applied geoscience research. AI and, more broadly, data science is revolutionizing geoscience by improving data analysis, interpretation, and predictive modelling, and we seek a new appointment to add capacity to our expertise in this area. The Department offers unrivalled facilities for geology, geophysics and data science, including a world-class rock deformation laboratory; workstation capacity for geophysical data interpretation; 2D multi-scale petrographical imaging, alongside world-class University of Manchester (UoM) facilities in Research Computing and 3D-4D X-ray CT imaging facilities. Furthermore, Greater Manchester holds the second biggest AI ecosystem in the UK outside of London. In addition to joining this vibrant research landscape, the new appointee will support teaching delivery on our successful undergraduate and masters programmes in Earth and Planetary Science, Environmental Science, Sustainable Geoscience and Energy, Petroleum Geoscience, as well as the cross-faculty MSc in Data Science. The post holder will also bring their personal research to students through supervision of individual or group projects across the spectrum from undergraduate to postgraduate research students.

The Department of Earth and Environmental Science is committed to promoting equality and diversity, including the Athena SWAN charter for promoting diversity in careers in the STEMM subjects (science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine) in higher education. The School (as it was in 2016) received a Silver Athena SWAN Award for its commitment to diversity in the workplace, and the School of Natural Sciences to which the Department now belongs was also recently awarded Athena SWAN Silver. We welcome applications from all sections of the community especially those historically underrepresented in academia and appointment will be made on merit.
