Resident	183905 - CVM Pathobiology Dept Admin	Main Campus - Starkville, MS
The College of Veterinary Medicine, Mississippi State University, invites applications for a residency in Anatomic Pathology.
Assistant Professor	011900 - Agricultural Science & Plant Protec	Main Campus - Starkville, MS
The Department of Agricultural Science and Plant Protection (www.agscipp.msstate.edu/) at Mississippi State University seeks to fill a tenure-track, assistant professor position in forest health based at the main campus in Starkville. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a multidisciplinary, internationally recognized, and extramurally funded research program using innovative approaches to address basic and applied research topics in forest health that synergize with existing strengths within the departments of Agricultural Science and Plant Protection (https://www.agscipp.msstate.edu/) and Forestry (https://www.forestry.msstate.edu/). The research area of particular interest is an increased molecular understanding of ecological interactions involving arthropods, pathogens, and/or mycorrhizae and corresponding tree health in forests and/or urban settings. Possible areas of study in these interactions include, but are not limited to chemical ecology, biological control, and plant resistance. Collaboration with other researchers and Extension Service colleagues both on and off campus is expected. The successful applicant will have a strong commitment to undergraduate and graduate education, teaching a foundation course in forest health, as well as advanced courses relevant to their areas of expertise, advising undergraduate students, and serving on graduate student committees. The successful candidate is expected to be an interactive member of the faculty, as well as contribute to relevant scientific/professional societies.
ASSUREd Safe Training Manager	193700 - ASSURE	Main Campus - Starkville, MS
The ASSUREd Safe Lead Instructor is responsible for overseeing the planning, coordination, and execution of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) training programs for first responders. This role provides leadership in instructor development, curriculum oversight, training logistics, and instructional delivery, ensuring all programs meet ASSUREd Safe and industry standards. The ideal candidate will bring a strong background in training development, team leadership, and UAS operations with a focus on innovation, compliance, and operational excellence.
Assistant Professor	061700 - Mechanical Engineering	Main Campus - Starkville, MS
The Michael W. Hall School of Mechanical Engineering in the Bagley College of Engineering at Mississippi State University invites applicants for a tenure-track position at the ranks of Assistant or Associate Professor. Successful candidates will be expected to develop nationally and internationally recognized, externally funded research programs in areas including, but not limited to: development of design methodologies to improve performance of various materials including steel alloys, aluminum alloys, copper alloys, etc. through theoretical and experimental study to provide a fundamental understanding of roles of alloying elements, manufacturing processes, materials structures, and mechanical properties to the performance of those materials of interest. The position holder must have the ability to work independently, publish in archival journals, write research proposals, and present in a public forum. Preferred candidates should show a track record in nationally recognized research and innovation toward transformative technologies, applications, and partnerships with industries.
Postdoctoral Associate	191001 - Northern Gulf Institute	Miami, FL
The Northern Gulf Institute (NGI) at Mississippi State University is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate to spearhead a large-scale marine biodiversity assessment project using environmental DNA (eDNA) collected across the global ocean through the Bio-GO-SHIP project. This position is based at NOAA's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) in Miami, Florida. The successful candidate will be at the forefront of this major initiative to generate and analyze metabarcoding data from thousands of marine water samples, significantly advancing our understanding of ocean life. This role involves extensive laboratory work in development of high-throughput metabarcoding assays; library preparation using those assays; bioinformatics data analysis, including taxonomic database improvement and the evaluation of novel assignment tools; and data publishing to global biodiversity repositories. This position offers a unique opportunity to collaborate with leading scientists at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), University of California – Irvine, and the Minderoo Foundation, and to make foundational contributions to global marine biodiversity monitoring and open data infrastructure.
