Job: Dean of the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources

The University of Vermont (UVM) seeks a dynamic leader to serve as Dean of the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources, working in a boldly progressive, highly interdisciplinary setting that blends ecology and environmental science, social science and humanities, and spatial analysis and modeling; all with a focus on understanding human-environment relationships and ecosystem sustainability. The Dean is both the leading academic officer in The Rubenstein School and an important member of UVM’s senior leadership team.


The School has an annual budget of approximately $15 million (about $5 million base funds plus gifts, endowments, and research grants) and is home to about 500 undergraduate and 130 full and part-time Master’s and Ph.D. students, 40 faculty members (including 27 tenure track positions), and 30 research and administrative staff. It is also the coordinating administrative unit for the campus-wide Environmental Program which serves majors in two colleges beyond the Rubenstein School.


The Dean will lead efforts to expand the School’s network of inter-College, local, state, national, and international collaborations, and represent the School and University to a wide constituency of environmental professionals, government agencies, and legislators. In this capacity the Dean will play a leading role in defining and pursuing initiatives to complete UVM’s transformation into an internationally recognized environmental university.


The University of Vermont, founded in 1791, is one of the oldest universities in the United States. The Rubenstein Ecosystem Science Laboratory on the Lake Champlain waterfront features eight state-of-the-art research laboratories [and is physically connected to the ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center at the Leahy Center for Lake Champlain -- a public education resource and a unique platform for UVM scientists to connect with the broader community. One of the nation’s most livable cities, Burlington is leading the sustainable cities movement nationwide. While a public research and land grant university with a wide range of programs, including a medical school, the University of Vermont is able to provide a personal touch because of its relatively small size – 9,000 undergraduates and about 1,300 graduate students with approximately 1,000 full-time faculty.


UVM provides a rich environment for teaching, research, and scholarship in many realms of human inquiry and a strong tradition of liberal education. Attesting to the institution’s overall excellence, faculty attract research grants valued at five times the research support of the average university of UVM’s size. The university comprises seven separate undergraduate colleges and schools, an Honors College, a Graduate College, a College of Medicine, a Division of Continuing Education that operates statewide, and a Division of Extension. UVM offers more than 90 undergraduate majors and 52 master’s and 22 doctoral degree programs.


The University has articulated a ten-year strategic plan involving significant expansion of facilities, student enrollments, and faculty. A vibrant and rigorous Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources is central to the success of this plan. (Specific information on the Strategic Plan is available at http://www.uvm.edu/~president/?Page=strategic_planning/strategicplan.html.)  The new Dean will play a critical role in shaping the future of the College in concert with the university strategic plan.


The University seeks a recognized scholar and experienced administrator committed to both undergraduate and graduate programs, with the ability to strengthen and expand the school’s teaching and research agenda. The successful candidate will have an earned doctorate or equivalent degree in an area related to the College’s instructional mission, a significant record of scholarly accomplishment sufficient to qualify the candidate for appointment as full professor; demonstrated achievements in academic administration, effective interpersonal and managerial skills. A strong and demonstrated commitment to diversity—among faculty, staff, and students as well as in scholarship and curriculum—is required. Experience in enrollment management and planning will be advantageous. Because the dean is expected to play an important leadership role in the university’s upcoming comprehensive campaign, which should launch in FY 2009, experience in securing external funding to support and maintain current programs as well as new curricular and program offerings is essential.


Screening of applications will begin by September 30, 2008 and will continue until the position has been filled. Appointment will likely begin July 1, 2009. Interested candidates must apply on-line at: http://www.uvmjobs.com (req. #032413). Please attach a letter of application that addresses the qualifications listed above, a current CV, and a list of five references (name, title and contact information). Nominations of candidates are welcomed and should be sent to the Search Committee Chair: Domenico Grasso, Ph.D., P.E., DEE

Position Title Vessel Monitoring System Host Organization National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA) Sector Federal Government Location: Gloucester, Massachusetts Internship Duration 6 months Hourly Wage $14.46 Internship Start ASAP Summary ECO is a national non-profit training, education and leadership development organization dedicated to the development of diverse environmental leaders. ECO is collaborating with NOAA to increase the diversity of its applicant pool, so we are looking especially for African, Hispanic, Asian, and Native American graduates. NOAA Fisheries Office of Law Enforcement (OLE) is dedicated primarily to the enforcement of laws that protect and regulate our nation's living marine resources and their natural habitat. Under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Conservation and Management Act, effort controls such as closed fishing areas, limits on the number of fishing trips, and restrictions on the number of days-at-sea (DAS) available for fishing have become prevalent management tools to protect our ocean resources. To help ensure that these regulations and laws are being adhered to while at sea, many vessels are required to carry satellite-based vessel monitoring systems (VMS). VMS allows OLE to monitor compliance, track violators and provide evidence for prosecution while maintaining the integrity of the individual fisherman's effort. Further, data collected through VMS is used by NOAA Fisheries scientists and managers to better manage marine resources. Because information collected through VMS is critical to many aspects of the law enforcement and fisheries management process, data accuracy is essential. OLE staff must ensure that VMS information is accurate by regularly conducting data reviews and audits. The objective of this project is to provide assistance to enforcement technicians responsible for data accuracy. The individual will research and correct data collected through VMS, screen DAS data for processing errors or inconsistencies and review/audit VMS generated data to ensure that complete information is being collected. Eligibility Requirements Must be a U.S. Citizen Only candidates that have completed a degree, certificate course, or training program within the last three years of the position start date are eligible. Benefits: The individual will gain knowledge of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Management and Conservation Act, particularly as it relates to the fisheries management process. They will have an opportunity to work with law enforcement officials and other divisions in the Northeast Regional Office to obtain and analyze information on fisheries as it relates to the VMS and DAS programs. Responsibilities: The objective of this project is to provide assistance to enforcement technicians responsible for data accuracy. The individual will research and correct data collected through VMS, screen DAS data for processing errors or inconsistencies and review/audit VMS generated data to ensure that complete information is being collected. The individual will assist enforcement technicians by researching and correcting data collected through VMS. The individual will need to apply training that they receive on fishing laws and regulations for use in analyzing VMS data to ensure that it is accurate and complete. Required Qualifications: The ideal candidate would have a scientific background with intermediate knowledge of database management and SQL. They must be able to comprehend complex rules and regulations and conduct their work with minimal direction and oversight. Further, the individual should have excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Preferably, the candidate would have a BA/BS in either computer science or biological sciences with database management skills. Desirable Qualifications: The individual should have an interest in applied science and in merging policy with technology. Once trained, they should be able to work independently to complete scheduled projects. Other Useful Information: The individual may be required to travel in the Boston area to obtain training on the VMS program and must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement in order to handle VMS data. Recruitment should occur within ECO’s Diversity Initiative and the applicant must be a U.S. citizen. Opportunity to enroll in an employee paid basic sickness and accident medical plan (including dental and vision) Health Insurance Subsidy Reimbursement Plan Application Instructions To apply please send cover letter, resume, and three professional or academic references (contact information) to Liesl Martin, NOAA Program Manager – Lmartin@eco.org.
