The De­part­ment of Phys­ics (www.phys.ethz.ch) at ETH Zurich in­vites ap­plic­a­tions for the above-​mentioned po­s­i­tion.

Suc­cess­ful can­did­ates main­tain a strong re­search pro­gramme in one of the areas of com­pu­ta­tional phys­ics such as con­densed mat­ter, quantum op­tics, quantum en­gin­eer­ing, as­tro­phys­ics, or high en­ergy phys­ics, and com­bine it with a broad port­fo­lio of com­pu­ta­tional meth­od­o­lo­gies. Com­mit­ment to teach­ing and the abil­ity to lead a re­search group are ex­pec­ted. Teach­ing du­ties fo­cus on the com­pu­ta­tional cur­ricula in the phys­ics de­part­ment as well as in the com­pu­ta­tional sci­ence and en­gin­eer­ing pro­gramme at ETH Zurich and in­volve ba­sic courses at the un­der­gradu­ate level (in Ger­man or Eng­lish) and ad­vanced courses in the Mas­ter’s pro­gramme (in Eng­lish). The De­part­ment of Phys­ics of­fers a stim­u­lat­ing en­vir­on­ment in both the­or­et­ical as well as ex­per­i­mental phys­ics.

As­sist­ant pro­fess­or­ships have been es­tab­lished to pro­mote the ca­reers of younger sci­ent­ists. ETH Zurich im­ple­ments a ten­ure track sys­tem equi­val­ent to other top in­ter­na­tional uni­ver­sit­ies. The level of the ap­point­ment will de­pend on the suc­cess­ful can­did­ate's qual­i­fic­a­tions.

Ap­plic­a­tions should in­clude a cur­riculum vitae, a list of pub­lic­a­tions, a state­ment of fu­ture re­search and teach­ing in­terests, a de­scrip­tion of the lead­er­ship philo­sophy, a de­scrip­tion of the three most im­port­ant achieve­ments* and the names of five ref­er­ences. The let­ter of ap­plic­a­tion should be ad­dressed to the Pres­id­ent of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Joël Mesot. The clos­ing date for ap­plic­a­tions is 15 June 2022. ETH Zurich is an equal op­por­tun­ity and fam­ily friendly em­ployer, val­ues di­versity, strives to in­crease the num­ber of wo­men pro­fess­ors, and is re­spons­ive to the needs of dual ca­reer couples.
