-------- Original Message -------- Subject: tenure track position in GIS at Calif State Univ Long Beach Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2008 23:01:41 -0700 From: Christine M. Rodrigue, Ph.D. <[log in to unmask]> Organization: Geography, California State University, Long Beach To: Maps, Air Photo & Geospatial Systems Forum <[log in to unmask]>, Christine M. Rodrigue, Ph.D. <[log in to unmask]> The Department of Geography at California State University Long Beach is searching for a tenure-track assistant professor in GIScience and geovisualization, with a research specialization in urban applications of GIS, broadly interpreted. Ours is a growing, energetic, and collaborative department, which has long emphasized the geospatial techniques, including cartography, GIS, remote sensing, and statistics/geostatistics. We are very keen to augment this strength with a person interested in data visualization and cartography, interactive and web mapping, map design, and spatial cognition, whose work involves, ideally, the urban context of our Greater Los Angeles Area setting (e.g., emergency response and disaster preparation, land use planning, housing, transportation, and/or migration). We are hopeful that we can bring in someone with an active interest in cartographic design/cognition and integration of GIS and remote sensing with interactive media. The position description is at http://www.csulb.edu/geography/GIScience.html . To learn more about our department, please visit http://www.csulb.edu/geography/ , and you are welcome to contact us by telephone if you have questions, at 1 (562) 985-4977 or 2357. We invite your application or sharing this announcement with promising candidates. Our screening will begin on or shortly after the 10th of October. Thank you for your time and consideration. Chrys Rodrigue, Professor, "Geography @ The Beach"
