Tenure-Track Faculty – Texas A&M University

The Physics and Astronomy Department at Texas A&M University seeks applications for a
tenure-track assistant professor position in experimental nuclear physics under the auspices of
the Nuclear Solutions Institute. This institute combines basic and applied nuclear science with
nuclear security technology and policy; it already encompasses a broad spectrum of faculty
members drawn from across the university. A selected candidate must hold an earned Ph.D. in
physics or a related area. The appointment is expected to begin on or before September 1, 2015.
The successful candidate for this position will assume a tenure-track position in the Department
of Physics and Astronomy with a joint appointment in the Cyclotron Institute and the Nuclear
Solutions Institute. More senior candidates may be considered at the associate professor or
professor level. He/she is expected to assume full teaching responsibilities at the graduate and
undergraduate levels and is also expected to conduct a vigorous research program based at the
Cyclotron Institute and employing the facilities there, which include two cyclotrons – a newly
refurbished K150 and a superconducting K500 – together with a wide variety of modern experimental equipment. An upgrade project, nearing completion, will utilize the two accelerators to
make radioactive beams available to all target locations.
Each application should include:

  • a cover letter specifying that the application is for the nuclear physics position,
  • a curriculum vita,
  • a list of publications,
  • a description of future research plans,
  • a teaching statement, and
  • the names, addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of at least three references.

 
Application packages should be submitted by e-mail to facultysearch@physics.tamu.edu (in
pdf or Word formatted attachments), or by regular mail to:
 
Nuclear Search Committee (Walker)
