Bard College invites applications for two tenure-track positions in
physics in its Division of Science, Mathematics, and Computing
beginning in the fall semester of 2014. At least one of the positions
will be filled by an experimental physicist. Bard College is a highly
selective liberal arts college with a rapidly growing Science Division
and Physics Program, located 100 miles north of New York City on the
Hudson River. More information about the Physics Program can be found at
http://physics.bard.edu.
The requirements of each position
are a commitment to teaching excellence in a liberal arts setting and
the ability to create an active research program that is open to
undergraduate involvement, for which start-up funds are available.
Members of the Physics Program work closely with faculty members
throughout the Division and the College in research and curricular
development, and candidates are encouraged to present any interests that
could overlap with other fields of study. Candidates should have a
Ph.D. in Physics and preferably post-doctoral experience.
Candidates would teach courses at all levels within the Physics Program,
and would be expected to develop additional courses, including
introductory-level courses open to the general college student. The
development of optics courses in particular will complement the existing
offerings.
To apply, please send a cover letter, a Curriculum
Vitae, a teaching statement, a research statement, and three letters of
recommendation (at least one addressing teaching) to
https://secure.interfolio.com/apply/21929. Review of applications will
begin on October 1, 2013.
Bard College is an equal opportunity employer and we welcome applications from those who contribute to our diversity.
