The Department of Forest, Rangeland and Fire Sciences (FRFS) seeks an Assistant or Associate Professor of Rangeland Ecology and Management to work at the Moscow campus. This tenure-track or tenured faculty (rank and tenure are negotiable based on how the candidate meets the criteria outlined in department and college bylaws) position will focus on Rangeland Ecology and Management in support of the Rangeland Ecology and Management program and other undergraduate and graduate programs in the Department of Forest, Rangeland and Fire Sciences, and College of Natural Resources. The faculty member will teach three undergraduate courses and lead a graduate course in their field of expertise (approximately 12 credit hours per academic year). Course content will support both program and university student learning outcomes. Specific courses will be determined in consultation with the department head. The faculty member will actively and effectively advise undergraduate students and will actively recruit and effectively mentor graduate students and post-doctoral researchers. The faculty member will conduct research related to rangeland ecology and management, with an emphasis on the ecological effects of natural disturbances (e.g., wildfire) and management activities (e.g., grazing, invasive species) that have direct implications for the long-term health and sustainability of rangeland ecosystems. The faculty member will publish in peer-reviewed journals, present findings to scientists and managers at professional conferences, and actively seek external competitive funding to support this research. The faculty member will work collaboratively within the department, college and university, as well as with external stakeholders (e.g., government and nongovernmental organizations, other universities, and industries). In these and other ways, the faculty member will develop and maintain a nationally recognized research and outreach program. The faculty member will also be effective in both outreach and engagement, particularly in linking research activities with outreach activities that help contribute to the land grant mission of the university. Thus, the faculty member participates in site visits, presentations to public and professional audiences, short courses and workshops, web-based communication, grant and manuscript reviews, and written impact statements that translate research findings to audiences with varying degrees of familiarity with the subject matter.
