Position DescriptionThe School of Life Sciences, College of Natural Sciences at the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa invites applications for the position of Assistant Professor (F-3) in Quantitative Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Biology. This is a permanent, tenure-track, full-time, 9-month faculty appointment to begin August 1, 2025, subject to position clearance, availability of funds and satisfactory performance.
This position is part of a new fisheries unit and graduate degree program being developed across the campus. This initiative is designed to better understand and manage the dynamics of fisheries species population biology, ecology, and evolution in the context of regional, state, and community fishery needs, including those of Native Hawaiians. Research should extend beyond traditional fisheries stock assessment methods to include broader issues of how management will affect ecosystem dynamics and be affected by global change, and how traditional assessment methods can learn from Native Hawaiian cultural practices. Research that will focus on Hawaiian species and ecosystems is of particular interest.
We are seeking a colleague with expertise to contribute to our current undergraduate course in biostatistics, and marine biology courses that relate to the candidate’s expertise in ecology, evolution, or organismal biology of marine species and to develop an undergraduate course in ecosystem-based fisheries science. The successful candidate will help build on our current strengths in conservation, ecology, evolution, organismal biology, and quantitative biology. This includes research incorporating the dynamics of ecological factors such as food resources, predators, competitors, and the abiotic environment that interact with a fisheries stock.
The University of Hawai‘i at Manoa (UHM) is a Native Hawaiian place of learning and a Carnegie Research 1 University with a strong emphasis on research and undergraduate and graduate education. Our vision is to be recognized locally and globally as a premier student-centered and community-serving university. The School of Life Sciences hosts the largest academic program on the University of Hawai‘i’s flagship campus, serving over 1,500 undergraduate majors and 150 graduate students for degrees in biology, botany, marine biology, microbiology, molecular cell biology, and zoology. Research interests of the 40 faculty members span all biological scales, with many focusing on ecology, evolution, organismal, and conservation biology. The School of Life Sciences is committed to serving our community and state, and to excellence in research and teaching.
Duties and Responsibilities
Develop and teach a graduate course in ecosystem-based fisheries biology
Contribute to undergraduate courses in biostatistics, fisheries biology, and marine biology
Develop and sustain an innovative, externally-funded research program

Serve on departmental, college, and university committees as appropriate
Contribute to service to the professional and local/regional community that is relevant to the individual’s academic specialty
Research focused on the development and implementation of quantitative methods aimed at tropical ecosystem-based fisheries science
Commitment to supporting the key principles of the School of Life Sciences, which are inclusiveness, personal and professional integrity, and the pursuit of excellence
Minimum Qualifications
Earned Ph.D. or equivalent terminal degree from a college or university of recognized standing in a field relevant to the position by time of hire.
Professionalism in meeting and conferring with others.
University level or equivalent teaching experience
Research excellence and creativity in ecosystem-based fisheries biology, marine ecology, marine conservation biology, or a related field as demonstrated by publications in peer-reviewed journals
