Tenure-track Assistant/Associate Professor of Physics

The Department of Physics at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette
invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor
position in experimental applied physics. The successful candidate will
also serve as the Director for the Louisiana Accelerator Center (LAC).
We seek a candidate who can strengthen the department's research
directions, particularly in accelerator, materials, and biophysical
sciences. These areas are critical to the university's strategic goal of
enhancing its Very High Research Activity (R1) status, contributing to
state economic development, and supporting the success of the
interdisciplinary Earth and Energy Sciences (EESC) Ph.D. program.

Candidates are expected to enhance the department's unique regional contributions in research and course offerings. The successful applicant will establish an independent, interdisciplinary research program that aligns with the research emphases of the EESC program. They will also capitalize on existing experimental facilities, research directions, and collaborations the department has developed both within and outside the university.

Qualifications:
All applicants must have a Ph.D. in physics or closely related discipline and a strong record of research productivity. They must also be committed to teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels as well as mentoring students in research.

Applicants must submit a single pdf-file which includes CV, list of publications, a research statement and a teaching statement, which may include plans and goals for advancing equity and inclusion if hired as a UL Lafayette faculty member. In addition, contact information for three referees, who will be contacted later in the search to provide recommendation
letters, must be submitted.

To ensure full consideration, all materials must be received before January 15, 2025.
