The successful candidate will develop an innovative research agenda that broadly leverages qualitative (e.g., community-engaged), quantitative (e.g., geospatial analytics and computational techniques), and/or mixed-methods approaches to confront pressing global and regional planning challenges. We are particularly interested in candidates whose work addresses complex, multi-scale research questions surrounding climate adaptation, hazard risk reduction, and resilient urban infrastructure across planning subfields such as transportation, housing, land use, or community development. The candidate will also be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses, which may include urban/environmental planning, hazards and disasters, qualitative research methods, sustainability, spatial thinking, and public policy.
