The candidate will be expected to teach GIS courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels, contribute to teaching the GIS Certificate and mentoring students in GIS projects within the GIS Laboratory. In addition, the candidate will teach a sophomore-level Environmental Statistics course and develop new courses in GIS and spatial statistics as the technology advances. If desired, the candidate will have the opportunity to develop and engage in research projects during the summer months and apply for grant funding. This position may assume other duties as needed such as working as the assistant GIS Lab director in the future.
