Culture of Inclusion and Community Standards
As an individual contributor you will model and support a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and wellbeing and continually seek to understand how your role, behaviors, and actions impact the success of this culture.
Department Background
The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is a pioneer of purpose-driven science and Cornell University's second largest college. We work across disciplines to tackle the challenges of our time through world-renowned research, education, and outreach. The questions we probe and the answers we seek focus on three overlapping concerns: natural and human systems; food, energy, and environmental resources; and social, physical, and economic well-being.
Unique among peer institutions in the United States, the breadth of disciplinary expertise in the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment - from ethics and social sciences to conservation genetics and applied ecology - creates a stimulating multidisciplinary atmosphere for our students, staff, faculty and visiting scholars. We have strong collaborative ties across Cornell University, other universities, governmental agencies, and leading environmental and conservation organizations.
Rewards And Benefits
Position Summary
While position responsibilities vary, every member of our community is expected to foster a culture of belonging and a psychologically healthy work environment by communicating across differences; being cooperative, collaborative, open, and welcoming; showing respect, compassion, and empathy; engaging and supporting others regardless of background or perspective; speaking up when others are being excluded or treated inappropriately; and supporting work/life integration of oneself and others. Primary duties include, but are not limited to, tick surveillance in Onondaga County, NY. This will involve driving to field sites (mainly private lands and parks), communicating with on-site personnel as needed, and collection of ticks and environmental data in the field. Assist Cooperative Extension staff with tick identification and tick education programming.
