The Kansas Geological Survey at the University of Kansas is seeking a Research Project Coordinator for a new project studying potential water, economy, and energy benefits from the integration of solar energy projects in agricultural landscapes. The project coordinator will play a central role in working with diverse project partners, including farmers, utility companies, government agencies, not-for-profit groups, and researchers, to design, build, and monitor an integrated solar power-groundwater recharge system in southwestern Kansas. This will involve working with partners to construct a novel on-farm experiment linking together the highly regulated utility, energy policy, water, and agricultural sectors, and will require a creative approach to coalition-building and problem-solving. Therefore, we are seeking someone with strong interpersonal skills, exemplary organizational skills, and experience with field-based research in a water-related field.
The position is contingent on sponsored project funding.
