The Animal, Veterinary and Food Science Department is seeking applications for the Hunt Endowed Chair in Beef Education and Research. We seek an innovative scholar committed to continuing Professor Carl Hunt’s tradition of excellence in teaching, research, and service to the cattle industry.

The successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain a robust, extramurally funded and industry-supported research program (60%) focused on both applied and fundamental aspects of growing-finishing cattle nutrition, including beef, beef on dairy, and feedlot management. Responsibilities also include training graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and undergraduate researchers. In addition, the candidate will contribute to undergraduate and graduate teaching (35%) in areas such as ruminant nutrition and feedlot management. The candidate will also provide service (5%) to the university. The position is an academic year, tenure track or tenured appointment, and is available at the Associate or Full Professor level. Rank and tenure are negotiable based on how the candidate meets the criteria outlined in department and college bylaws.

Research and education activities of the Endowed Chair will be supported by proceeds from the Hunt Family Beef Education and Research Endowment (>$2M) made possible through the generous donations of the Hunt family, colleagues of the late Dr. Carl Hunt, alumni, industry, and supporters of the Department of Animal, Veterinary and Food Sciences.
