Assistant Professor of Physics, 9-month tenure track, beginning August 2013
Henderson State University is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Affirmative Action Employer with a significant commitment to the achievement of excellence and diversity among its faculty, staff, and students. In pursuit of this commitment, the Physics Department seeks an energetic individual with a commitment to undergraduate teaching in a liberal arts environment and who will engage students in undergraduate research. Student advising, research/scholarly activity, and university service are expected.
The successful candidate will teach core undergraduate physics and/or engineering courses at all levels, participate in the operation and maintenance of the undergraduate laboratories, and direct senior research projects. The department has collaborative ties with the Arkansas Space Grant Consortium and seeks applicants whose research complements existing strengths in engineering physics, geophysics, computational physics, observational astronomy, atmospheric physics and/or astrophysics.
