2027, at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor. Salary will be competitive and commensurate with qualifications and experience. The teaching load in the department is one course per semester. Our department has active research groups in astronomy and the following: astrophysics; atomic, molecular, and optical physics; high-energy physics; and condensed matter physics. The department hosts an active NSF REU program, maintains both a machine shop and electronics shop, and enjoys access to the Oklahoma Supercomputing Center for Education and Research (OSCER). The University of Oklahoma HEP group contributes to the ATLAS experiment, has extensive experience in silicon strip and pixel detector technology, and is participating in the high-luminosity upgrade of the ATLAS detector and muon collider R&D. In addition, we host one of the ATLAS tier 2 computing centers. The group has experience in SM and BSM physics, specifically Higgs, top, supersymmetry, and unconventional signatures. Separate from this search, a recent generous gift to the department has endowed the experimental HEP group with the funds to support two full-time research faculty in perpetuity, as well as sustained funds for a seminar series and graduate student support. For further information about our department and the experimental HEP group, see https://ou.edu/cas/physics-astronomy or contact the search committee Chair, John Stupak ( john.stupak@ou.edu ).
