Job Description

The Department of Organismic & Evolutionary Biology (OEB), in partnership with the Museum of Comparative Zoology (MCZ), seeks to appoint a tenure-track professor in Marine Biology. Research areas of interest include but are not limited to: human interactions with marine life and ecosystems, conservation biology, marine ecology, systematics, physiology, and evolutionary biology (with an emphasis on invertebrates or vertebrates). We seek an outstanding individual who will establish an innovative research program and teach both undergraduate and graduate students. The position will likely be associated with a curatorial appointment in the MCZ with shared oversight responsibilities for the museum’s research collections. The department and museum have strong links to a number of allied institutions, including the Harvard Forest, Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University Herbaria, and the Salata Institute.

The successful candidate will benefit from state-of-the-art research facilities, strong institutional and departmental commitment to career development, and a vibrant, collaborative research enterprise that brings together many disciplines in the biological sciences to create unique scientific and educational opportunities, including public programs with the Harvard Museums of Science and Culture. Appointments will be made at the pre-tenure academic ranks of Assistant or Associate Professor, in accordance with the candidate’s experience and accomplishments.

OEB and MCZ celebrate the multiple dimensions of diversity that each member of our community offers, including diversity of background, perspective, and lived experience. We strongly welcome applications from persons from underrepresented groups. Candidates are welcome to reach out directly to the email listed below if they would like to discuss their candidacy prior to applying. The appointment is expected to begin on July 1, 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.

5.    Service statement describing the candidate’s past, ongoing, and future efforts to strengthen academic communities, e.g., the candidate’s department, institution, and/or professional societies.
6.    Names and contact information of 3-5 referees, who will be asked by a system-generated email to upload a letter of recommendation once the candidate’s application has been submitted. Three letters of recommendation are required, and the application is considered complete only when at least three letters have been received. At least one letter must come from someone who has not served as the candidate’s undergraduate, graduate, or postdoctoral advisor.
