Job description

The Institute for Chemistry and Biology of the Marine Environment (ICBM) is an interdisciplinary institute of the University of Oldenburg with facilities in Oldenburg and Wilhelmshaven. It is the only university institute in Lower Saxony that covers broad areas of marine science in both research and teaching. 26 working groups from various disciplines, particularly the natural sciences - including biology, chemistry, physics and also mathematics and social sciences - belong to the institute. The ICBM operates the coastal observatory Spiekeroog and is home institute of the research vessel SONNE. The ICBM at the School of Mathematics and Science seeks applications for a

as soon as possible. Place of work is Wilhelmshaven.

We offer a creative, international and inspiring working environment in which interdisciplinary cooperation within the ICBM, nationally and internationally in research and teaching is encouraged. Our unique infrastructure offers exceptional opportunities for the development of new research directions. As a certified family-friendly university, the compatibility of work and family is a particular interest of ours.

We are searching for an internationally renowned marine scientist who represents the field in research and teaching in its breadth. The professorship will bring new aspects of applied physical oceanography with a focus on shelf seas and aspects from the research field of sub-mesoscale processes to the Center for Marine Sensors (ZfMarS) at the ICBM (located in Wilhelmshaven). Perspectively, the research will, based on observations at sea, contribute to a mechanistic understanding of physical processes in coastal and shelf seas, such as mixing processes, energy fluxes, particle transport and light availability. The professorship can resort to an existing broad spectrum of expertise and infrastructure at ZfMarS and ICBM (e.g., drifters, ARGO floats, optical sensor technology, seawater basin with direct access to the sea, prototype laboratory and research vessels) and further develop them.

Commitment to participate in current and future interdisciplinary collaborative projects (e.g. BASS and DynaDeep) at the ICBM and to lead joint research cruises is required. We offer excellent opportunities to network within the institute and to develop new initiatives. Synergies with the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI, Research Department Marine Perception) in Oldenburg are encouraged.

Teaching responsibilities cover the entire field of physical oceanography in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs. Applicants are asked to demonstrate their ability to connect to the described areas in research and teaching in a concept of max. 5 pages each.

As the University of Oldenburg and the University of Bremen are bound by a cooperation agreement, active participation in the cooperation is expected.

Prerequisites for employment are specified in section 25 of the Lower Saxony Higher Education Act (NHG).

Further prerequisites:

· An academic degree with doctorate in physics, oceanography or a related field

· Excellence in research as documented by the publication record in physical oceanography

· Documented relevant teaching experience in a university setting

· International experience, generally attained by doing research abroad

· Successful acquisition of third-party funding

Desirable are:

· Engineering and technical experience in device and sensor development

· Scientific experience in the field of oceanographic processes of shelf seas

· Experience in leading and conducting expeditions at sea

The University aims to increase its proportion of woman in science. Equally qualified woman will be considered preferentially. In case of equal aptitude, applicants with disabilities will be given priority in hiring decisions. The position is suitable for part-time employment.

Please apply by March 31, 2025 preferably in English via the application web portal for professorships of the Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg at https://l.uol.de/berufungen. Enquiries about the position are welcomed by Prof. Dr. Oliver Wurl, Oli***.****rl@***.de
