The successful candidate is expected to initiate a vibrant research group, teach a variety of courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels including but not limited to AMO and quantum science, and contribute broadly to the activities of the Physics Department. To promote diversity, the Department especially welcomes applications from women, persons with disabilities, protected veterans, and underrepresented minorities.
