Identify, design, implement and evaluate research-based educational programs related to sustainable water resources management. As an expert, you will work with local partners and other MSU faculty and staff to support programming that could address the following topics: the economic development aspects of water infrastructure, regional water infrastructure planning and management, and educational efforts delivered through a lens of "One Water" that focuses on a watershed-scale understanding of the interconnectedness of water across healthy waterways, water uses (residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal), stormwater, and wastewater management. There will be a focus on region-specific issues in and around Genesee County, including lead and drinking water, water infrastructure, and water sector workforce development. You will work with colleagues at MSU and MSU Extension, and the network of partner groups that include the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) Water Resources Division, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, MSU Departments of Forestry, Fisheries and Wildlife, Institute of Water Research (IWR), and other applicable departments and units across campus. Additionally, you will continue to grow local partnerships with groups like the Karegnondi Water Authority, Flint River Watershed Coalition, and UM-Flint and Kettering University.
