		+	<br>Postdoctoral Position in Computational PDEs at Texas A&M University
		+
		+	Outstanding candidates are invited to apply for two postdoctoral positions
		+	in computational PDEs and computational fluid dynamics areas involving applications to complex oil recovery problems. One successful candidate will conduct research in the Mathematics department
		+	at Texas A&M University (TAMU), College Station, Texas, USA and another
		+	one will conduct research in the Petroleum engineering department at our
		+	branch campus (TAMUQ), Doha, Qatar. Both of these candidates will conduct research on topics related to the development and implementation of algorithms for solving partial differential equations arising in the context of fluid flows in porous and continuous media involving surface active agents.
		+
		+	Candidates must hold a PhD in Computational Mathematics/Sciences or Computer Science and Engineering or Computational Physics or a related discipline with a background in scientific computation, fluid dynamics and moving boundary problems. Some experience with front tracking or level set or similar other methods is a plus. The candidate should demonstrate a strong research record and outstanding research potential.
		+
		+	Interested candidates should contact Professor Prabir Daripa at
		+	daripa@math.tamu.edu (see web page at www.math.tamu.edu/~daripa). Please
		+	submit a curriculum vitae, research statement (including previous research
		+	experience and career goals) and the names and contact information of
		+	three references. The position is initially up until August 2012 starting
		+	as soon as possible (immediately) which will be extended for at least
		+	one year depending on performance. The salary range for this position
		+	will be commensurate with qualifications. The candidates at both campuses
		+	will interact with the Lead PI (Daripa, US), Co-PI (Gupta at Qatar), as
		+	well as graduate students and postdocs working on similar topics at both
		+	campuses. In addition, the successful candidate will be part of a vibrant
		+	community of graduate students, postdocs, and faculty with interests in
		+	computational science and engineering.
		+
		+	The candidates must indicate which campus (US or Qatar) they are applying
		+	for unless they have no preference in which case the decision of the
		+	choice of the campus will be made by me. However note that applicant for
		+	Qatar campus needs to be more matured and require little more experience.
		+	Only materials submitted in this electronic manner will be considered. Applications will be considered until the positions are filled.
		+
		+	TAMU is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Applications from minority and female candidates are especially encouraged.

		+	<br> STANFORD SCHOOL OF EARTH SCIENCES ARCHITECTURES AND ALGORITHMS INITIATIVE
		+
		+	Applications in earth, energy and environmental sciences are more compute intensive than ever
		+	before as we simulate more realistic models, e.g. multi-physics and multiple scales, and work
		+	with larger and larger data sets. The computational challenges are critical in both industrial and
		+	academic settings. Multi- and many-core clustered solution, General Purpose Graphical
		+	Processing Units (GPGPU) and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) all provides orders
		+	of magnitude performance advantages over traditional CPU based serial programming, but
		+	require different programming paradigms and/or algorithmic approaches.
		+
		+	The Stanford School of Earth Science Architectures and Algorithm Initiative (SESAAI) is focused
		+	developing new concepts and algorithms to optimally map Earth Science applications,
		+	particularly seismic imaging and fluid flow in porous media, to these new hardware platforms.
		+	Progress in these areas necessitates both a fresh look at algorithmic approaches and their interplay
		+	with hardware resources, and programming paradigms that enable efficient use of these platforms.
		+	The initiative is a core activity of the Stanford Center for Computational Earth and Environmental
		+	Science (http://cees.stanford.edu). Applicants with training in Earth sciences, applied math, electrical
		+	engineering, and computer sciences are encouraged to apply.
		+
		+	Appointments are for a one- or two-year term. Applicants should submit a statement of research
		+	interests and proposed research, a curriculum vita, a list of publications, and names of three
		+	potential referees.
		+
		+	Application materials should be sent by email toClaudia Baroni <cbaroni@stanford.edu>.
		+
		+	Stanford University has a strong institutional commitment to the principle of diversity. In that spirit,
		+	we encourage applications from women, members of ethnic minorities, and individuals with disabilities.
		+	Stanford University is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer.

		+	UCLA: FACULTY POSITION IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENT
		+
		+
		+	The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) seeks outstanding candidates for a tenure-track faculty position in the field of Energy and Environment, focusing on energy policy and technology. The appointment will begin effective July 1, 2010. The position is nominally at the rank of Assistant Professor, although appointment at a higher level may be considered. Candidates should be capable in quantitative analytic methods via fields such as the social sciences, natural and applied sciences, engineering and other appropriate disciplines and have a demonstrated capacity to work on energy policy issues. We are particularly interested in someone capable of working on issues of energy and climate change mitigation. Possible areas of expertise include scientific analysis and/or modeling of current and future energy pathways (including fossil fuels, nuclear, biofuels, and renewables), energy policy and sustainability, energy and greenhouse gas emissions, energy linkages with air quality or water resource issues, energy conservation, advanced energy management systems, and technological innovation.
		+
		+
		+
		+	The appointment will be in the UCLA Institute of the Environment (www.environment.ucla.edu), a dynamic and growing interdisciplinary center within UCLA representing faculty in the health sciences, life sciences, physical sciences, social sciences, engineering, law and other disciplines. Affiliations with other campus units are possible, and encouraged.
		+
		+
		+
		+	A Ph.D. degree is required for eligibility. A strong commitment to interdisciplinary research is highly desirable, as may be shown by relevant postdoctoral experience and publications. The successful candidate will have demonstrated the ability to secure external funding. Prior engagement in service to increase participation in science or engineering by groups historically under-represented in these fields is also highly desirable.
		+
		+
		+
		+	Please use job number: 2155-0910-01 in all correspondence. Applicants can submit application materials as WORD or PDF files online to energyposition@ioe.ucla.edu including a cover letter, curriculum vita, statements of research, teaching and interdisciplinary experience and interests, three exemplary publications, and the names and contact information for four references.

		+
		+
		+	For additional questions about submitting an application, contact Ms. Eileen Sir, Manager of the UCLA Institute of the Environment, at esir@ioe.ucla.edu, 310-825-6999. Applications submitted by January 1, 2010 will receive full consideration, as will later applications as time allows. Inquires about the position should be directed to Professor Glen M. MacDonald, Director, UCLA Institute of the Environment, macdonald@ioe.ucla.edu. Women and minority applicants are encouraged to apply; UCLA is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer with a strong institutional commitment to the achievement of faculty and staff diversity.
