An announcement has been added in the "PSI-K" site at PSI-K (http://cselnx9.dl.ac.uk:8080/portal ) Subject: Junior Professor (W1) in Theoretical Physics/Computational Physics Category: Job From: André Schleife Date: 19-Feb-2010 12:08 Message: Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena To foster excellence in research and education, the Friedrich- Schiller-Universität Jena would like to fill by fall 2010 the positi on of a Junior Professor (W1) in Theoretical Physics/Computational Physics with the specification Condensed Matter Theory. The Faculty for Physics and Astronomy and the Institute for Solid State Physics and Optics invites applications of young encouraged and excellent physicists for a professorship in the field of modeling materials properties using multiscale methods especially such fully based on many-body quantum mechanics. The candidate should be able to make substantial contributions to research and education in this area. Optical, electronic and magnetic properties of inorganic and organic structures on nano- and micrometer length scales should be in his/her focus. The successful candidate is expected to establish scientific relationship with other university groups. His/her collaboration with existing and developing teaching and research projects, graduate schools, clusters and networks is obvious. The future professor shall contribute to the teaching courses (in German and English) in Computational Physics, Theoretical Physics and Condensed Matter Physics. Engagement is also expected in the academic administration. Candidates are expected to have an academic university degree, possess pedagogic skills and be able to perform excellent scientific work which is demonstrated usually by the outstanding quality of their Doctorate/PhD research and a productive postdoc period in the respective research field. Experience in raising research funds and the coordination of research projects are highly appreciated. The university wants to promote women in science and education and is particularly looking forward to receive applications from qualified female researchers. Applications of handicapped people will be given preference in the selection among equivalently qualified competitors. The position will be appointed initially for 4 years with the possibility for a 2 year extension after positive intermediate evaluation. In the case of exceptional performance the Thuringian legislation offers the opportunity to upgrade the position to the W2/ W3 level. Applications should include a curriculum vitae with details on the scientific career, a list of publications, presentations, teaching and successful grant applications, as well as a description of scientific interests and research plans for the future. Applications should be received by April 15, 2010 and should be directed to Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena Faculty of Physics and Astronomy Dean Max-Wien-Platz 1 07743 Jena Germany ---------------------- This automatic notification message was sent by PSI-K (http://cselnx9.dl.ac.uk:8080/portal ) from the PSI-K site.
