University of Dundee seeks Chair in Flood Science and Chair in Water Science
As part of a major investment in water-based research, the University seeks to fill two new Chairs in Flood Science (School of Social and Environmental Sciences) and Water Science (UNESCO IHP-HELP Centre for Water Law, Policy and Science).
The Chair in Flood Science forms part of the University's investment in the SAGES (Scottish Alliance for Geoscience, Environment and Society) partnership. The successful applicant will contribute to the wider SAGES research agenda on earth system science and environmental change. Applications are invited from scientists working in hydrology, geomorphology and natural disasters.
The Chair in Water Science is in the recently created UNESCO Centre for Water Law, Policy and Science. The successful applicant will have expertise in catchment science and support research undertaken under the UNESCO Hydrology, Environment Life and Policy (HELP) programme which promotes global river basin management.
