Such cross-disciplinary studies may include aspects of threatened species conservation, management of wild populations and communities, and aquaculture, including hatchery production for stock enhancement.
The successful candidate is expected to establish an externally funded research program and contribute to the departmental research and teaching missions. Primary teaching responsibilities will include an undergraduate course in fish biology and management, and at least one additional undergraduate or graduate course related to the candidate’s area of expertise.
