VAP at Reed College

Reed College invites applications for a One-Year Visiting Assistant Professor appointment in Physics, beginning in August, 2010. The position is open to strong candidates of any research focus; our main selection criterion will be the promise of outstanding teaching.

PhD required, postdoctoral and teaching experience desirable.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a description of teaching and research interests, and arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to Chair, Physics Search Committee, Reed College, 3203 S.

If you have submitted an application for our tenure-track position and would like to be considered for this visiting position as well, simply send an email to physics.search@reed.edu indicating that your previously submitted application is for both positions. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled, but they should be received by March 1, 2010 to guarantee full consideration. An Equal Opportunity Employer, Reed values diversity and encourages applications from underrepresented groups.
