Our faculty regularly collaborate with numerous units across campus. Depending on specific interests, the person in this position can expect to find willing collaborators in, for example, the Departments of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies (LALACS), African and African American Studies (AAAS), Native American and Indigenous studies (NAIS), Anthropology, and History, as well as the Program in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. Our faculty also collaborate regularly with the Leslie Center for the Humanities, the Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy the John Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding, and the Irving Institute for Energy and Society. Several members of our faculty are affiliated with the interdisciplinary graduate program Ecology, Evolution, Environment & Society (EEES) and are actively advising graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. We have a regular two-year Postdoctoral Fellow in Human Geography and have been successful in sponsoring postdoctoral fellows through the Provost’s Fellowship (PROF) program, the Society of Fellows program, and the Neukom Fellows program. In addition, we are especially interested in applicants who can contribute to undergraduate research initiatives, including those that advance diversity in the discipline such as the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship. All faculty in Geography regularly engage undergraduate research assistants in ongoing research projects through Dartmouth-sponsored initiatives such as the Women in Science Program (WISP) and the Presidential Scholar program. The Geography department and Dartmouth are committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive population of students, faculty, and staff. Dartmouth recently launched a new initiative, Toward Equity, that embraces shared definitions of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging as a foundation for our success in institutional transformation. We are especially interested in applicants who are able to work effectively with students, faculty, and staff from all backgrounds and with different identities and attributes. Applicants should provide a statement addressing how their teaching, research, service, and/or life experiences prepare them to advance Dartmouth’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

logo
The NAISA logo was designed by Jonathan Thunder, a Red Lake Ojibwe painter and digital artist from Minnesota. NAISA members inspired by canoe traditions among their own people sent examples to Thunder, who designed the logo with advice from the NAISA Council. The color scheme was chosen to signify those Indigenous peoples who are more land-based and do not have canoe traditions.
