University of Guelph

AD23-11 The School of Environmental Sciences at the University of Guelph invites applications for a tenured position at the Associate or full Professor level for the E. Alan (OAC ’60) and Jule A. Cameron Chair in Ecological Pest Management. This Chair is funded through a $3 million endowment sponsored by Dr. Alan and Jule Cameron. The successful candidate will hold a PhD in entomology, ecology, or ecosystem science with a focus on forest ecosystems or agroecosystems and should be an exceptional emerging or established scholar who has demonstrated research excellence through a strong publication record in internationally recognized, peer-reviewed journals and who is leading or has the potential to lead in their field. Applicants should have expertise in forest and/or crop pest management with a focus on ecologically based pest management strategies and tactics in forest or agricultural systems including, for example, biological control (insects, pathogens); chemical ecology (pheromones, kairomones, allomones); minimally environmentally impactful chemical and/or biological insecticides; pathogen ecology/control; integrated pest management; etc. Experience in field-based research is an asset. The position provides an excellent opportunity to build on existing strengths and reputation within the School of Environmental Sciences (SES) in the field of pest management. The SES is a multi-disciplinary academic unit with researchers in a range of fields (soil science, geology, agricultural meteorology, forest and ecosystem science, environmental microbiology, environmental toxicology, and plant pathology) and has an outstanding international reputation in the fields of entomology, including pest management, pollinator conservation, insect ecology, and insect systematics and evolution.

The position will require the development of a strong extramurally funded research program involving the mentoring of graduate and undergraduate students. The successful candidate will have responsibility for teaching existing and/or new courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels in ecological pest management. Strong communication skills are essential, and applicants will provide clear evidence of effective teaching, with classroom experience considered an asset. Collaboration in research and graduate training is encouraged with others in SES, the Ontario Agricultural College, the University of Guelph and other universities, as well as with federal and provincial ministries. Faculty in SES are expected to provide service to the University, to the scientific community, and to society at large. Knowledge Translation and Transfer (KTT), especially in the form of direct outreach to Ontario’s integrated pest management community, will constitute an important and expected criterion for the Chair holder. This will provide much needed support for farmers and/or foresters with respect to the understanding and management of new and existing insect pest species, especially in relation to climate change and the greater potential for invasive species to succeed in the Canadian climate.

Researchers in the SES have links across campus including Geography, Environment and Geomatics, The School of Engineering, Integrative Biology, the Morwick G360 Groundwater Research Institute, Animal Biosciences, Food Science, Ridgetown Campus and Plant Agriculture, as well as with producer organizations and members of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, Vineland Research and Innovation Center, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Ontario Ministry of the Environment, and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. In addition, it has advanced analytical facilities in-house, and access to research stations across the province, including the nearby Elora and Arkell Research Stations. The school sits within the Ontario Agriculture College and is located on the main campus in the city of Guelph, 80 km west of Toronto, Ontario. More information about the School, the College and the University can be found on their respective websites (www.uoguelph.ca/ses, www.uoguelph.ca/oac, www.uoguelph.ca).

The School of Environment and Sustainability (SENS) invites applications from outstanding scholars for a full-time tenure track faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor in Sustainability Solutions, here defined as actions or innovations that help achieve sustainability goals, with a focus on moving beyond theory toward meaningful solutions. We value applicants who focus on solutions, such as regenerative sustainability which aims to improve the well-being of society and the environment in ways that enhance the support systems needed for future prosperity. Regenerative sustainability focuses on creating net positive outcomes and proposing solutions, not just reducing harm or doing no harm. It seeks to restore, regenerate, and enhance the natural and social systems that we depend on.

The School of Environment and Sustainability is home to a diverse and interdisciplinary group of faculty who engage in collaborative and community-engaged scholarship to solve pressing issues that concern our planet, including complex sustainability challenges related to global water security, regenerating and sustaining healthy ecosystems, conserving biocultural diversity, assessing and managing pollution, improving rural and remote energy security, and advancing good environmental governance – all aligned with USask Signature Research Areas and several of the UN’s 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.

We are seeking a candidate whose current or proposed research program and vision align with those of SENS’ faculty and academic programs in the area of sustainability, who ideally has experience working in research teams spanning the natural and social sciences, and who can work with partners outside of academia. The successful candidate should be able to teach in multiple SENS sustainability courses including one or more of Regenerative Sustainability, Systems Thinking, Sustainability in Theory and Practice, and Sustainability in Action. A candidate who has worked outside of academia may also be well-positioned to support professional skills development across our professional and thesis-based programs. We will prioritize candidates who clearly articulate how their research and teaching contributions will enhance SENS’ sustainability-related research and teaching themes.
