Tenure-Track Assistant Professor of Physics and Astronomy

We invite applications for two tenure-track faculty positions in physics and astronomy starting as early as Summer 2024. Candidates of all academic ranks will be considered but by policy will be hired at the rank of Assistant Professor.  Candidates with research specialties in astrophysics or nuclear physics are a higher priority in this year’s search, nevertheless we encourage all interested candidates to apply. Successful candidates will demonstrate the potential for teaching a variety of physics courses including required courses for physics majors at the upper level.  We are committed to hiring faculty who embrace the diverse nature of our student body, comprising exceptional women and men from every congressional district in the United States.

Areas of research in our department include acoustics, astrophysics, computational physics, nuclear physics, optics, and condensed matter.

Minimum Qualifications:

A Ph.D. in physics, astronomy or a related discipline is required (anticipated completion of Ph.D. no later than June 2024 is acceptable).

How to Apply:

Review of applications will begin on October 1 and will continue until the position is filled.
