The University of Delaware (UD) invites applications from talented scholars pursuing interesting questions related to disasters, hazards, and crisis. We are looking to fill multiple tenure-track/tenured positions in Disaster Science at the Assistant or Associate Professor level beginning September 1, 2019. This search is the first stage of an exciting university-wide, interdisciplinary cluster recruitment effort to expand research in disaster science, a major emphasis of the University, with hiring planned over the next two years. In this first stage, we are seeking exceptional candidates with interdisciplinary interests in a wide range of topics broadly construed as social perspectives on risk, hazards and disasters. 

Faculty will have a tenure-track/tenured home in a department at the University of Delaware and join, as core faculty, the world-renowned Disaster Research Center (DRC), the world’s oldest center focused on the social science and management aspects of disaster. UD has several environment- and disaster-oriented programs and research streams in its various colleges. DRC houses the flagship institution of the William A. Anderson Fund (BAF), an initiative devoted to increasing the participation of students from historically underrepresented populations in disaster science and practice.
