Program Description
We are pleased to invite applications for the new C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program. The C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program supports researchers whose lines of inquiry complement C-CoMP's scientific and education research agendas. We strongly value diversity and encourage people from minoritized and marginalized groups to apply. The Faculty Fellowship will provide one month of salary ($40K, including benefits and institutional indirect costs) per year for up to 2 years to support research and networking activities that advance C-CoMP's mission in a manner consistent with our guiding principles. Faculty Fellows are expected to participate in C-CoMP meetings and working groups, and are encouraged to contribute to C-CoMP's goals in education, outreach, and diversity.

Individuals must have a PhD and be employed at a US-based institution as research- or tenure-track faculty and researchers currently affiliated with -CoMP laboratories are not eligible. C-CoMP is committed to promoting equity and inclusion in ocean science research to enhance diversitv in the ocean science workforce. We seek to amplifv voices and perspectives from historically marginalized groups, including underrepresented racial and ethnic minorities as well as from individuals who would bring other dimensions of diversity to ocean science (e.g., sexual, gender, ableness, socioeconomic). We strongly encourage individuals from traditionally minoritized and marginalized backgrounds to apply.
