CIESIN is a unit of the Columbia Climate School (CCS) that addresses
Columbia University’s “Fourth Purpose”—the application of scientific
data (especially spatial data), rigorous knowledge, and research for
societal impact and the public good. With more than 40 scientific and
technical staff based at Columbia’s Lamont campus in Palisades
NY, CIESIN works at the intersection of the natural, social, health, and
data sciences to advance research and applications focused on
human-environment interactions and to provide unique geospatial science
and technology capabilities for research, education, and decision
making. CIESIN has a strong portfolio of contracts, grants, and other
sponsored projects including the operation of the NASA Socioeconomic
Data and Applications Center (SEDAC). Many CIESIN staff have adjunct
appointments at Columbia and are active in local, national, and
international organizations dealing with data sharing and stewardship,
climate change, sustainable development, disaster management, and other
topics. CIESIN has three main divisions: Science Applications,
Geospatial Applications, and Information Technology.
Screening of the candidates will begin immediately, and the search will
remain open for at least 30 days from the day of posting and continue
until filled. For further information, please contact Gabby Cohen,
Assistant Director for Faculty Affairs, at gcohen at climate.columbia.edu

CCS brings together an interdisciplinary faculty to conduct research and
practice in a broad range of climate-related fields and to train
students at the master’s and undergraduate levels for careers in climate
research, practice and education.
Columbia University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
The search committee is particularly interested in candidates who will
contribute to the diversity and excellence of the CCS academic community.
