About this position

Utah State University’s Department of Environment and Society is inviting applications for one to two postdoctoral fellow positions in Remote Sensing, GIS, and Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) within natural resources and environmental research and teaching.

The positions are based at the USU main campus in Logan, Utah, United States, with a possible remote start before relocation. These are full-time, twelve-month appointments with responsibilities split across teaching, curriculum development, student mentoring, and research. Teaching is the majority of the role, and fellows will teach up to 18 credits in GIS, remote sensing, geospatial AI, Python/R programming, geovisualization, Google Earth Engine, database management, and related topics at undergraduate and graduate levels.

Minimum qualifications include PhD advanced candidacy by the time of hire in geography or a related quantitative field, with a focus on geospatial science in a human-environment or natural resources context. Applicants should demonstrate strong expertise in GIS, remote sensing, and GeoAI. Preferred qualifications include prior teaching experience, online course delivery experience, and the ability to collaborate in an interdisciplinary academic environment.

Compensation starts at $70,000 per year, with salary commensurate with experience and excellent benefits. The position may be extended up to two years. Non-U.S. citizens are welcome to apply, and J-1 visa sponsorship may be possible, though H-1B sponsorship will not be provided.
