Postdocs
We are actively recruiting 1-2 post-doctoral researchers with flexible start date of Fall 2025 and beyond. The researchers will work in collaboration with Dr. Gomez on a range of possible projects under the broad theme of modeling and observations of ice sheet dynamics, glacial isostatic adjustment, and global sea levels as well as at the interface between sea level projection science and coastal resilience.
The official job posts are not available at the moment but you can find more information here.
How to express interest:
If you are interested please email Dr. Gomez and cc the address [email protected] expressing your interest with the information below. We will be in touch starting in late September to discuss the position.
Your email should include:
Candidates are also encouraged to consider applying to the annual competition for postdoctoral fellowships through the Trottier Space Institute (https://msi.mcgill.ca/index.php?page=employment-opportunities-and-fellowships). These are 2 year fellowships at McGill University that include full salary and will be topped up with a research stipend and cover relocation costs. Fellows will be able to pursue an independent research project based in the Earth and Planetary Sciences Department and as part of the interdisciplinary Trottier Space Institute. They will be joining a large and active group of postdocs in an exciting, welcoming and very international community with an active focus on EDI.
