About The Position
The University of Mississippi, also known as Ole Miss, is a leading public research institution dedicated to fostering an inclusive community where everyone can thrive. This role supports research in watershed hydrology, surface water systems, flooding, and water quality through the development and application of advanced hydrologic and hydraulic models. The successful candidate will be involved in developing, implementing, calibrating, verifying, and validating numerical models, simulating watershed processes, and evaluating the effects of environmental changes on water resources. This position also contributes to the development of computational tools and decision-support systems for critical water management applications.
Requirements
- Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Environmental Science, Atmospheric Science, Earth Science, Hydrology, Water Resources Engineering, or a closely related discipline.
- Experience in numerical modeling of watershed hydrology, surface water systems, flood processes, and/or water quality.
- Experience in model calibration, verification, and validation using field, laboratory, and/or observational datasets.
- Experience in writing peer-reviewed scientific publications.
- Experience in scientific programming (e.g., FORTRAN, Python, R).
- Excellent oral, written, and presentation skills (both technical and non-technical).
Nice To Haves
- Experience with CCHE numerical models is preferred.
- Experience in laboratory and/or field experimental studies related to hydrology, hydraulics, watersheds, flooding, or water quality is preferred.
- Experience in computer systems development, scientific software development, or computational tool development is preferred.
- Candidates who are expected to receive their degree by the end of the current semester are also encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities
- Develop, implement, and apply surface water, watershed, and flood models for hydrologic, hydraulic, and water quality analyses.
- Verify and validate hydrologic and hydraulic models using field observations, monitoring data, and historical flood events.
- Simulate watershed processes, including rainfall-runoff transformation, streamflow routing, flood inundation, sediment transport, and pollutant fate and transport.
- Evaluate the impacts of land use change, climate variability, and extreme weather events on flooding, watershed hydrology, water quantity, and water quality.
- Support the development of computational tools and decision-support systems for flood forecasting, watershed planning, and water resources management.
Benefits
- Equal opportunity employment
- Compliance with all applicable laws regarding equal opportunity
- Background investigations are conducted for applicants being considered for employment.
