The Department of Physics invites applications for a tenure-track appointment at the Assistant or Associate Professor level, beginning September 2013. Wellesley is a private liberal arts college for women (2300 students) with a long tradition of providing high-quality scientific training. We offer a dynamic and challenging undergraduate physics major; many of our students go on to top graduate programs in a variety of disciplines. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in physics or closely related field, a record of excellence in teaching, and a strong commitment to undergraduate education. The successful candidate is expected to have first rate research credentials and a demonstrated ability to establish an active on-campus experimental research program with significant student involvement. All fields of research will be considered.
Applicants should submit a c.v., statement of teaching interests and experience and a proposed research plan that includes a description of undergraduate participation. Please arrange to have three letters of recommendation (The online application will request names/email address so that recommenders or dossier services may submit the letters directly.) through our online application system at: https://career.wellesley.edu. If circumstances make it impossible to submit any materials through our application site, please email us at working@wellesley.edu. Early applications are strongly encouraged; we will begin the interview process this Fall. All candidates should apply before November 1, 2012. Wellesley College is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer, and we are committed to increasing the diversity of the college community and the curriculum.
