Tenure-track Position in Theoretical Cosmology, Particle or Astroparticle Physics
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Alabama
(physics.ua.edu) invites applications for a tenure-track assistant
professor position in theoretical physics in the areas of cosmology,
particle, or astroparticle physics. The appointment will begin
August 2009. Candidates for this position are expected to have an
outstanding research record and exhibit potential for effective
teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Minimum
qualifications for this position are a Ph.D. and a record of
scholarly publications. The successful candidate is expected
to develop a vigorous, externally funded research program in
theoretical physics, as well as teach and mentor at the undergraduate
and graduate levels. The current seven member particle physics
group includes both theorists and experimentalists. Review of
applications will begin 15 January 2009 and will continue
until the position is filled. Applications should consist
of a resume, including descriptions of the applicant's
accomplishments, research interests, teaching credentials,
and teaching philosophy, as well as contact information for
at least 3 references (names, telephone numbers, email and postal addresses).
Applications should be submitted online at the University
of Alabama website facultyjobs.ua.edu.
The University of Alabama is an Equal Opportunity Affirmative

For additional information, contact the search committee
chair, Prof. Louis Clavelli, at
lclavell@bama.ua.edu or (205)348-3794.
Tenure-track Positions in Astronomy and Astrophysics
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Alabama
invites applications for two tenure-track positions in astronomy
or astrophysics at the rank of assistant professor.
We are particularly interested in applicants in extragalactic observation
at all wavelengths, computational astrophysics, and high-energy astrophysics,
related to the group's current extragalactic interests.
The appointment will begin 16 August 2009.
Related research groups at UA are interested in theoretical
particle physics, experimental particle physics and astroparticle
physics; the department intends to establish a theoretical
astroparticle physics program in the near future. More
information about the department can be found on the departmental
website, physics.ua.edu. The minimum qualĩcations for this
position are a Ph.D. or equivalent, postdoctoral experience,
scholarly publications, and experience with modern research
techniques in astronomy and astrophysics. Candidates for this
position are expected to have an outstanding research record
and exhibit potential for effective teaching at the undergraduate
and graduate levels. The successful candidate is expected to
develop a high quality, externally funded research program,
as well as teach and mentor at the undergraduate and graduate
levels. We will begin reviewing applications on 15 January 2009
and the review process will continue until the position is ̃lled.
Applications should consist of a resume, including descriptions
of the applicant's accomplishments, research interests, teaching
credentials and teaching philosophy, as well as contact information
for at least 3 references (names, telephone numbers, email and postal
addresses). Applications should be submitted online at
facultyjobs.ua.edu.
